CARING FOR YOUR DINNERWARE The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage to some items if they are washed in the dishwasher. Remember, if in any doubt about any aspect concerning items washed in the dishwasher, follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the items, or wash the item by hand. IMPORTANT! Never put highly absorbent materials, such as sponges and towels in your dishwasher.
LOADING ADVICE z z z z When loading your dishwasher Place items so that water coming from the rotating spray arms below can reach all areas. Especially items on the foldaway cup racks. Wash performance will be reduced if it can’t. Ensure glass and other fragile items are stable, so that they do not accidentally topple and break during the wash. Any flimsy or light plastic items should be either weighted down or placed on the cup racks or in the cutlery tray.
LOADING ADVICE z z z z z z z z 14 The large mug below is blocking wash water reaching the mug on the cup rack. Locate sharp items safely to prevent injuring the user and damaging the lid assembly. Sharp or pointed items must be placed horizontally or with sharp edges/points facing down to avoid risk of injury. Maximum plate height is 260mm. Ensure cutlery has not fallen through the base rack and stopped the spray arms from rotating.
WATER HARDNESS AND DISHWASHING What is water hardness? Hard water is water with a high concentration of minerals such as calcium and magnesium. In soft water, this concentration is low. Water hardness varies by geographical location. How does water hardness affect dishwashing? z z Hard water can be detrimental to the performance of your dishwasher. Over time, glassware washed in hard water will become opaque and dishes will become spotted or covered in a white film.
WASH PROGRAMMES AND DETERGENT QUANTITIES z z z The quantities in the table below are for powdered detergent and typical levels of soiling. If your home has softer or harder water, or to suit the particular load, you may need to adjust these quantities. If you are using tablets, follow the tablet manufacturer’s recommendations. The indicator light will show which option has been selected.
ADDING DETERGENT IMPORTANT! z z z z Only use detergents recommended for automatic dishwashers. Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children and infirm persons away from the dishwasher when it is open. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after completion of each wash programme. Never sprinkle or pour detergent directly onto any item in the dishwasher.
USING RINSE AID C2, C4 Dishwasher C6 Dishwa We highly recommend using liquid rinse aid regularly to get the best drying results. Rinse aid gives a streak-free, sparkling clean look to glass and chinaware. In addition, it prevents metal from tarnishing. When to refill the rinse aid dispenser Rinse aid level indicators (rinse aid dispenser) When rinse aid level becomes low, the rinse aid indicator on the control panel will light up to remind you to refill the dispenser.
AFTER THE WASH When the wash programme is over, the dishwasher will beep six times, then automatically turn off in a few seconds. 1 Open the door slightly and leave it ajar (about 100mm) to help the drying process. 2 Once the dishes are cool to touch, they can be removed. IMPORTANT! Never leave the dishwasher door in the fully open position, as this could present a tripping hazard. 3 Check that the detergent dispenser is completely empty. If it isn’t, wipe out with a damp cloth.
CARE AND CLEANING Over time, food residue or limescale deposits may accumulate inside your dishwasher. These may reduce efficiency, and food residue may produce a bad odour. Inspect and clean your dishwasher regularly. IMPORTANT ! z z z z 20 Before any cleaning or maintenance, always disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply, turn off the water supply, and wait until all parts of the dishwasher have cooled.
CARE AND CLEANING Cleaning the dishwasher exterior z z z Clean all surfaces with liquid dishwashing detergent dissolved in warm water and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. Do not use any abrasive stainless steel cleaners, glass cleaners, solvents or scourer pads as these will damage the door surface.
CARE AND CLEANING Cleaning the spray arms Limescale and food particles in the wash water can block the holes in the spray arms and the arm mountings. Clean these parts about once a month, or more often should the need arise. Cleaning the upper spray arm/head Do not remove the upper spray arm for cleaning. Clean with a small plastic-bristled brush, or if heavily soiled or blocked use a dishwasher cleaner/descaler following the manufacturer’s instructions.
