9 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Although no particular scheduled maintenance is required, users are advised to have the dishwasher checked by a
specialist technician twice a year.
N.B.:
the manufacturer accepts no liability for wilful damage or damage deriving from carelessness, neglect, failure to
comply with instructions, regulations and standards or incorrect connections, which lead to forfeiture of warranty cover. If
possible, leave the door ajar when not in use; Clean surfaces thoroughly and often with a damp cloth; use neutral, non-
abrasive detergents which do not use chlorine compounds, which corrode and damage stainless steel. Do not use the
products mentioned above even when cleaning the floor underneath or in the vicinity of the dishwasher, as vapours or
drops may damage the steel surfaces.
The dishwasher has
IPX5
protection but pointing water jets straight at it for cleaning is
forbidden
9.1 Daily cleaning of filters
Cleaning the filter at the end of each working day
Remove the filters (simply lift them out as shown here), taking care that no large residues fall into the
sump underneath. Clean them to remove residues and rinse with plenty of water, then put them
correctly back in place;
do not use sharp or pointed tools.
Clean away any limescale deposits to prevent excessive build-ups;
9.2 Routine inspection of the spray arms (once a week)
Remove the washing and rinsing (top and bottom) spray arms by unscrewing the central ring-nut 1; remove the parts of the
rinsing spray arms 3 by taking out the screws 2 with a screwdriver as shown below.
Do not unscrew the nozzles.
Clean the holes
and nozzles under a jet of clean running water;
do not use tools which might cause damage.
Reassemble the spray arms with
care.
Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth and neutral soap, rinsing and drying thoroughly.
9.3 Lengthy periods out of use
If the dishwasher is to be out of use for a fairly long period of time,
the detergent and rinse aid dispenser devices must be
emptied to prevent crystallisation and damage to the pumps:
Remove the intake hoses from the detergent and rinse aid
containers and place them in a container of clean water, then perform a few wash cycles followed by a complete pump -out.
Finally, turn off the master switch, close the water intake valve and leave the door ajar until the interior is completely dry.
The detergent and rinse aid intake hoses must be put back into the containers when the dishwasher is returned to service,
taking care not to swap them over
(red hose = detergent, blue hose = rinse aid).
