Maintenance & Cleaning
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly
for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm
jets and bearings.
To remove the upper spray arm, screw off the nut
clockwise then remove the arm.
To remove the lower spray arm, pull the spray
arm upwards.
Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use
a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after
rinsing them thoroughly.
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so
that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive
cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water
and a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
When not in use for a long time
It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the
plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly
open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odours from forming
within the appliance.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it
can be positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in
the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
