Caring For The Dishwasher

Frostprecaution

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every after washing cycles, please operate

as follows:

1. Cut o the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source.

2. Turn o 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 lter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

After every wash

After every wash, turn o 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.

EN - 11

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 specically 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 o 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.

Aboutthesafetysupplyhose

The safety supply hose consists of the double walls. The system guarantees its intervention by blocking the

ow of water in case of the supply hose breaking and when the air space between the supply hose itself and

the outer corrugated hose is full of water.

WARNING

A hose that attaches to tap can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink

has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.

Howtoconnectthesafetysupplyhose

1. Pull the safety supply hoses out from storage compartment located at rear of dishwasher.

2. Tighten the screws of the safety supply hose to the faucet with thread 3/4 inch.

3. Turn the water fully on before starting the dishwasher.

1. Turn o the water.

2. Unscrew the safety supply hose from the faucet.

EN - 14

Connection Of Drain Hoses

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let it run into the sink, making

sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The height of drain pipe must be less than 600 mm. The free end of the

How to drain excess water from hoses

If the connection to the drain pipe is positioned higher than 1000 mm, excess water may remain in the drain

hose. It will be necessary to drain excess water from the hose into a bowl or suitable container that is held

outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly tted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the

water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.
