ing a damp cloth and
washing-up liquid.
If the appliance is not
going to be used for a
while, leave the door
slightly ajar.
This will prevent un-
pleasant odours.
Machine Care
Deposits, e.g. from remnants of food
and limescale, can cause your appli-
ance to malfunction. To avoid such
faults and reduce odours, we recom-
mend cleaning your appliance at reg-
ular intervals.
Machine Care combined with ma-
chine care products and machine
cleaners is the right programme for
the care of your appliance.

Machine Care is a programme which
removes various deposits in one
washing cycle. Cleaning takes place
in two phases:
Phase
Removal of
Detergent
Placement
1
Grease and limescale
Liquid machine care product
or machine descaler in
powder form.
Appliance interior, e.g. bottle
hung in the cutlery basket or
powder in the interior.
2
Food remnants and de-
posits
Machine cleaner
Detergent dispenser
To ensure optimum cleaning perform-
ance, the programme doses the de-
tergents independently of each an-
other during the relevant cleaning
phase. Correct placement of the de-
tergents is necessary here.
Run Machine Care without tableware
if the indicator for Machine Care
lights up on the control panel or if ad-
vised to do so by the display. The in-
dicator will go out after you have run
Machine Care. If your appliance does
not have a reminder function, we re-
commend performing Machine Care
every 2 months.

washer.

minium parts, e.g. extractor hood
