dishwasher.

Maintenance

The seals on the upper 

(G)

 and lower 

(J) 

closures deteriorate with use and need to 

be replaced with new seals.

Regular cleaning will prolong their lifetime. 

The lower closure seal can be taken out for 

cleaning. Press it to remove excess water 

and dry it, then fit it back into the 

appliance, pressing it in place. The upper 

closure seal is glued to the appliance, so it 

should be cleaned with a damp cloth and 

pressed to remove excess water. 

WARNING: Leave the lid open when the 

unit is not in use, as closing the unit 

deforms the seals and it will not create a 

vacuum correctly.

You should reverse the position of the lower 

seal from time to time. To do this, remove 

the seal and replace it the other way round.

Here are the steps to follow if you 

experience problems with the product.
