USING YOUR DISHWASHER

Loading The Dishwasher

Recommendation

All items to be washed should be marked “dishwasher safe”.
Use only dish detergent designed for automatic dishwashers; hand dishwasher soap will create foam and require significant clean up and issues with the dishwasher.
For delicate items, select a program with lower temperatures.

CAUTION: Do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the program has ended. These items will still be very hot.

Items Not Recommended for Dishwasher Use

Not suitable for use:

Cutlery with wooden, horn, china, or mother-of-pearl handles
Plastic items that are not heat resistant, older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant
Bonded cutlery items or dishes
Pewter or copper items
Crystal glass
Steel items are subject to rusting
Wooden items
Items made from synthetic fibres

Limited suitability:

Some glasses can become dull after a large number of washes.
Silver and aluminium have a tendency to discolour during washing.
Glazed patterns may fade if washed frequently.

Dishwasher Loading Tips

(For the best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of baskets and cutlery baskets may vary for your model.) Scrape off any large food particles. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:

Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc., load face downwards.
Curved items, or those with recesses, should be loaded at a slant so that water can run off.
All items are inserted securely and can not tip over, or move around and contact other items.
All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.

NOTE: Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.

Load items in a way that the dirty surface faces the center of the dishwasher
Load long and/or sharp cutlery horizontally on the cutlery tray
Avoid nesting dishes for best results(for example, two spoons together)
Ensure items do not touch or move/wobble in the basket, as this can cause damage to your dishes
Do not allow items to extend below the dishwasher rack, as this could cause interference with the wash arm.
Do not overload your dishwasher. If the water can not get to your dishes from the bottom or top, the wash results may be poor.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Filter System

WARNING

Never use the dishwasher without filters!
Make sure the filter is properly assembled.

The performance may be affected, and dishes and utensils could become damaged.

The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recycled during the cycle.

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the filter and cup under running water.

Step 1: Turn the filter assembly clockwise, then lift it up.
Step 2: Lift the fine filter up and separate it from the main filter.
Step 3: Clean all of the filter elements under running water to remove food soils.

Dishwasher Care

The control panel and exterior can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth.

After cleaning, make sure to dry it thoroughly. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads, or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Cleaning The Door

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft, warm, damp cloth.

To avoid allowing water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.

WARNING

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel, as it may damage the door lock and electrical components.
Abrasive agents or rough paper towel should not be used because of therisk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

Protect against freezing

Protect the dishwasher from freezing temperatures. If the dishwasher will experience freezing temperatures, please follow the procedure below:

In standby mode, press and hold the DELAY button + the AUTO OPEN button for 3 seconds simultaneously to drain the water tank.
Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher
