A regular inspection and maintenance
of your machine will help to prevent
faults. This saves time and prevents
problems.
Overall condition
of the machine
■
Check spray arm for grease
and limescale deposits.
If you find such deposits:
■
Fill detergent dispenser with
detergent. Start the appliance without
utensils in the programme with
the highest rinsing temperature.
Clean the appliance with detergents/
appliance cleaners which
are particularly suitable for use with
dishwashers.
■
To extend the life of your appliance,
clean the appliance regularly with a
special dishwasher detergent.
■
To ensure that the door seal always
remains clean and hygienic, regularly
clean it with a damp cloth and a little
washing-up liquid.
■
If the appliance is switched off for
a prolonged period, leave the door
ajar to prevent the formation of
an unpleasant odour.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean your
dishwasher. The manufacturer is not
liable for any consequential damage.
Regularly wipe the front of the appliance
and fascia with a damp cloth; water
and a little washing up liquid
are adequate. Do not use sponges with
a rough surface or abrasive detergents,
as these could scratch the surfaces.
Stainless steel appliances: To prevent
corrosion, avoid using sponge cloths
or wash them out thoroughly several
times before using for the first time.
