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 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 clean-
ing 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 longtime
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.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
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
