Maintenance and care
A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine
will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents
problems. Therefore you should occasionally have
a careful look inside your dishwasher.
Overall condition of the machine
Check spray arm for grease and limescale deposits.
If you find such deposits:
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent, start the
appliance without utensils in the programme which
has the highest wash temperature.
Clean the appliance with detergents/
appliance cleaners which are particularly suitable for
use with dishwashers.
Regularly wipe the door seal with a damp cloth to
remove deposits.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean your dishwasher.
The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential
damage.
Regularly wipe the front of the appliance and panel with
a damp cloth; water and a little washing-up liquid will
suffice. Do not use sponges with a rough surface or
abrasive detergents, as these could scratch the
surfaces.
Attention!
Never use other chlorinated household detergents!
Health hazard!
Special Salt

message in the window.
Rinse aid

Filters
The filters
26 prevent larger remnants of food or other
objects from getting inside the pump. This residue can
occasionally clog up the filters.
The filter system consists of a filter cylinder, a flat fine
filter and, depending on the model, a microfilter (*).
Inspect the filters for obstructions every time the
dishwasher has been used.
By unscrewing the filter cylinder, you can remove the
filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean
the filters under running water.
Reassembly:
Insert the filter system and screw down with the filter
cylinder.
Spray arms
Lime and remnants of food in the washing water can
block the nozzles in the spray arms
23 and 24 and
the arm mountings .
Inspect the nozzles in the spray arms for blocked
holes due to remnants of food.
If necessary, pull the lower arm 24 upwards and lift
it off.
Unscrew the upper spray arm 23 .
Clean both spray arms under running water.
