Maintenance And Cleaning - Whirlpool HGL 44 A Manuel D'instructions

Attention: use exclusively specific salt for dishwashers and not kitchen salt!
The salt compartment takes approximately 1 kg of grain salt.
The salt compartment is located on the bottom of the tank. Take the basket out, unscrew the cap and pour salt in
using the funnel not supplied with the machine. Before screwing the cap back on, remove any spilled salt near the
opening. Top-up with salt when there is no water in the tank so that the washing water cannot get into the water
softener. Always unplug the machine from the mains power supply before doing this operation. Remember to plug
the machine back into the mains socket after completing the operation.
When using the machine for the first time, after you fill with salt, add some water to the salt
container.
Even though the dishwasher does not require any special programmed maintenance in particular, we still recommend you have
it checked out by a specialized technician twice a year.
N.B: The manufacturer cannot be held liable for intentional damages or damages caused by carelessness, negligence or from
the failed observance of the prescriptions, instructions and standards or from incorrect connections or plumbing.
The dishwasher complies with the protection rating IPX1 and it is forbidden to use a direct jet of water to clean it.
CLEANING THE FILTER THROUGHOUT THE DAY
For heavy use, you are recommended to clean the filter every 30-40 cycles while the machine is in working conditions. To do
this, follow the "emptying the tank" instructions.
Remove the filter (1) (simply lift it out of its seat as illustrated), making sure large bits and pieces do not fall into the tank; clean
the filter and rinse it thoroughly.
Also clean the internal filter (2) and remove any bits and pieces inside it.
AUTOMATIC REGENERATION CYCLE
The regeneration cycle is automatic. The dishwasher is equipped with a wash meter. When
the set number of cycles is reached, the dishwasher will activate the regeneration function
the first time it is switched off and the tank is emptied.
When the machine is working normally and the set number of cycles is reached, the blinking
icon on the right-hand side will appear. This points out that the machine will activate the
regeneration function the next time it is switched off.
Only for models N1300, insert one empty basket in order to activate the
switch.
The countdown indicates the time left to the end of the regeneration cycle.
Once the regeneration cycle has been completed, the machine will remain in OFF mode.
DISHWASHERS WITH BUILT-IN OSMOSIS SYSTEM
REPLACING THE CARTRIDGE FILTER OR THE MEMBRANE
It points out that the service life of the carbon or mesh filter
dishwasher or the internal membrane has reached its limit.
Call the Technical Assistance Service.
While you wait for the filter or the membrane to be replaced, you can, and are
recommended to, disable the osmotic function so as not to wear the components any
further.
You can do this from the user's menu (see chapter 8).
Warning: the cartridge filter is used to protect the internal membrane and if you fail to
replace it, this will deteriorate the membrane irreparably.
ECONOMY FUNCTION
When the dishwasher is not used for 30 minutes (this time can be programmed from the
technician's menu) it will enter Economy mode, keeping the temperatures lower.
To exit the function, press any button or open the door.
