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.
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
(19).
3. Let the water from the inlet hose flow
completely into the dish.
4. Remove the (28) filters.
5. Remove the water from the sump floor
with the help of a sponge.
