EN

Shutting off the water and electricity

supplies

•

Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to

avoid leaks.

•

Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning

the machine and when carrying out maintenance

work.

Cleaning the dishwasher

•

The external surfaces of the machine and the

control panel may be cleaned using a cloth

dampened with warm soapy water. Do not use

solvents or abrasive products.

•

Any marks on the appliance interior may be

removed using a cloth dampened with water and

a little vinegar.

Preventing unpleasant odours

•

Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in

order to avoid moisture from forming and being

trapped inside the machine.

•

Clean the seals around the door and detergent

dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This

will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals,

which is the main cause of the formation of

unpleasant odours.

Cleaning the sprayer arms

Food residue may

become encrusted onto

the sprayer arms and

block the holes used to

spray the water. It is

therefore recommended

that the arms are

checked from time to

time and cleaned with a

small non-metallic

brush.

Cleaning the filters

The filters remove food residue from the water used

in the wash cycle: to obtain the best results from

each wash, they should be cleaned.

 Clean the filters regularly.

 After cleaning check that the filter assembly has

been replaced correctly.

The dishwasher should not be used without filters

or when the filter is loose..

1. Remove the filters by pulling the handle upwards.

2. Clean the filters:

• after every wash

cycle, remove the

largest pieces of

residue from

semicircular plate A

and glass B (these

may be removed by

pulling the handle) by

rinsing them under

running water.

• The entire filter

assembly should be

cleaned thoroughly

once a month: this

includes the

semicircular plate A,

the glass B and the

cylinder C (this may be

removed by turning it in

an anti-clockwise

direction). Use a small

non-metallic brush to clean these parts.

3. Reconstruct the filter assembly and replace it in

the correct position, following movements 1 and 2 as

shown in the figure, until it clicks into place.

Leaving the machine unused for

extended periods

•

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity

supply and shut off the water tap.

•

Leave the door of the appliance ajar.

•  When you return, run a wash cycle when the

dishwasher is empty.
