Care and maintenance
12.1 Care, general
The appliance has been designed to minimise the need for cleaning, care and
maintenance.
However, for a reliable, safe and permanent function of the appliance and in the interest
of hygiene and cleanliness a correct care and maintenance is necessary.
To facilitate this procedure, a maintenance contract can be concluded with the
manufacturer or the manufacturer’s agent.
CAUTION!
Works/repairs which were not correctly executed and the use of unauthorised parts by
unqualified personnel endanger both operators and the appliance, and will invalidate the
warranty.
12.2 Cleaning
After the tank has been drained, proceed as follows:
Residues sticking to the tank and sieve must be removed with a brush.
Wash nozzles must be cleaned daily.
The cleanliness of final rinse nozzles must be checked weekly and if necessary clean
under running water.
The inserts for the final rinse nozzles must be inserted with the prongs facing the water
flow.
12.2.1 Safety instructions for cleaning
CAUTION!
The machine, switch cabinet and other electrical components must NOT be sprayed with
a hose or a high pressure cleaner.
12.3 Care of stainless steel surfaces
We recommend cleaning the stainless steel surfaces only when needed with cleaner and
care products suitable for stainless steel.
Lightly soiled parts can be wiped with a (possibly damp) cloth or sponge.
Be sure to wipe dry after cleaning to avoid traces of scale. Use demineralised water if
possible.
Do not use aggressive cleaning or scouring agents.
The care products must not attack the stainless steel, form deposits, or cause
discoloration.
Never use cleaning agents that contain hydrochloric acid or bleaches based on chlorine.
Never use cleaning equipment that you have used previously by non-stainless steel to
avoid external corrosion.
Aggressive external influences due to cleaning and care products that evaporate in the
vicinity of the washing machine, or caused by direct application, can lead to machine
damage and put the material at risk (e.g., aggressive tile cleaners).
Caution!
Respect the safety rules of the manufacturers on the original packing as well as on the
safety data sheets.
