Caring For The Dishwasher
Frost precaution
Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every
time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:
1. Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the
water valve.
3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to gather
the water)
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up
water in the sump.
After every wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the
door slightly open for a while so that moisture and odors 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 an 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 odors 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.
