CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Regular dishwasher cleaning can extend its life-
time of trouble-free operation.
Grease and limescale can accumulate in dish-
washer chamber. In the event of such accumula-
tion
- Add detergent and do not load any dishes. Select
a high temperature washing programme and start
the dishwasher. If the result is not satisfactory, use
a special cleaner available on the market. (Clean-
ers manufactured specifically for dishwashers).
Clean the dishwasher door seal
To remove any accumulated residue from the door
seals, wipe the seals regularly with a damp cloth.
Clean the dishwasher
Clean the spray arms and filters at least once a
week. Before cleaning unplug the dishwasher from
wall outlet and close the water supply valve. Do
not use harsh or abrasive materials when clean-
ing. Wash with a mild cleaning agent and a damp
cloth.
Filters
Check if food residue has accumulated on the
strainer and fine filter. If so, remove the filters and
clean them thoroughly under running water.

1. Remove the lower basket.
2. Turn the strainer counter-clockwise and pull it
up.

5. Thoroughly clean the filters under running
water. Use a brush if necessary.
6. Install the filters in reverse order.
7. Insert the filter assembly into the chamber and
then turn clockwise.
• Never use the dishwasher without the
filter assembly.
• Improper mounting of the filters reduces
the dishwashing effectiveness.
• Clean filters are key to correct dishwash
-
er operation.
Spray arms
Make sure that jet nozzles the upper and lower
spray arm are not clogged. If jet nozzles are
clogged, remove the spray arms and clean them
under running water.
Remove the lower spray arm by pulling it upwards,
while the upper arm is removed by turning the nut
counter-clockwise.
When mounting the spray arm make sure that the
nut is well tightened.
Water supply hose filter
The water is filtered by the filter in the water supply
line to avoid damage to the appliance due to impu-
rities (such as sand, clay, rust, etc.) that occasion-
ally occur in water. This will also prevent accumu-
lation of sediment after dishwashing. Periodically
inspect the filter and hose and clean if necessary.
To clear the filter, close the water supply valve,
then remove the hose. Remove the filter from the
hose and clean it under running water. Replace
the clean filter inside the hose. Install the hose.
Cleaning the door lock
After each use wipe the door lock and around with
a cloth soaked with mild detergent and wipe dry.
Do not flood the lock with water. Do not use any
aerosol cleaners. They may damage the lock and
electric components inside.
