Checking and cleaning the
spraying arm and spray
nozzles
The spray nozzles and the nozzles in the

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 wash arm up and off.
(43)
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 spraying
arm, hold the two serrated bayonet grips
(43) still and turn the spraying arm clock-
wise.
4. Clean the nozzles under running water.
5. Affix the spraying arm again after clean-
ing.
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-12).
Protection against frost
damage
Position the appliance in an area which is
protected from frost, if possible. If this is not
possible, protect the appliance 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 (40).
3. Let the water from the inlet hose flow
completely into the dish.
4. Remove the filters (35).
5. Remove the water from the sump floor
with the help of a sponge.
