Care and maintenance
Checking and cleaning the
spraying arm and spray nozzles
The spray nozzles and the nozzles in the
spraying arm may calcify or become dirty due
to food scraps. Check the nozzles regularly
after each cycle and clean them if required.
1. Empty both racks and remove the lower
rack.
2. Pull the lower spraying arm up and off.

The dish rack of your appliance may differ
from the illustration.
3. The upper spraying arm is affixed using
a bayonet closure. To remove the spray-
ing arm, hold the two serrated bayonet
grips (25) still and turn the spraying arm
clockwise.
4. Clean the nozzles under running water.
5. Affix the spraying arm again after cleaning.
The spraying arm must be firmly affixed
and must be able to rotate freely.
Complete cleaning
In well-stocked supermarkets and drugstores,
you will find special dishwasher cleaning
products. Cleaning the appliance using these
products takes place when the dishwasher is
empty and is very intensive. You should clean
the dishwasher in this way from time to time.
When doing so, please note the manufactur-
er instructions on the packaging.
To prevent limescale deposits, please follow
the instructions for the correct setting of the
appliance (rinse aid and dishwasher salt)
(see “Dishwasher detergents, rinse aids and
dishwasher salts” on page EN-13).
Protection against frost
damage
Position the dishwasher in a room which is
protected from frost, if possible. If this is not
possible, protect the dishwasher against frost
as follows. You will need a shallow dish or a
pan, and a sponge.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the sock-
et or switch off the fuse.
2. Close the tap and unscrew the inlet
hose (16).
3. Let the water from the inlet hose flow
completely into the dish.
4. Remove the (24) filters.
5. Remove the water from the sump floor
with the help of a sponge.
