Technical Information

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Technical Information

Installation Instructions

WARNING! Electrical shock hazard
Disconnect electrical power before installing the dishwasher. Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.

Important! The installation of the dishwasher, plumbing and electrical outlets should be completed by licenced tradespeople.

POWER CONNECTION

WARNING! For personal safety:
• Do not use an extension cord, powerboard or a power adapter with the dishwasher. It should be connected directly into a power socket.
• Do not under any circumstances, cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Please refer to the rating label on the dishwasher, to find out the rated voltage and ensure that the dishwasher is connected to the appropriate power supply. Use the required 10 Amp fuse and it should be connected to its own dedicated circuit serving only this appliance.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power corresponds to that noted on the dishwasher’s appliance rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, have a licenced electrician replace the socket- do not use a power adapter as this can lead to overheating.

POSITIONING THE DISHWASHER

Important! Ensure that the dishwasher is properly earthed before use.

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with both a water supply hose and drain hose that can be positioned either to the right or the left sides to facilitate proper installation.

Ensure that your selected location has an accessible power-point (power outlet) which the dishwasher’s power cord can reach without strain. If there isn’t a suitable power point (power outlet) located nearby, please engage a licensed electrician to install a new power socket. Do not use extension leads, power boards or adapters.

LEVELLING THE DISHWASHER

Once the dishwasher is positioned in your desired location, the height and level of the dishwasher can be altered by adjustment of the screwing legs/feet. In any situation, the appliance must not be inclined more than 20º, as this will affect its operation and performance.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - dishwasher legs

Figure 4. Screwing the dishwasher legs/feet clockwise or anti-clockwise to adjust its level.

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTION

Cold Water Connection

Important! Your dishwasher should only be connected to the cold water outlet. It has an in-built heating element to heat up the water to the required temperatures depending on the selected wash program.

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded ¾ inch tap connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.

Important! If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let water pass through them into a bucket until the water runs clear. This precaution is required to avoid the risk of the water inlet becoming blocked or dirty water damaging your new dishwasher.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Cold Water Connection

Figure 5- Connecting the supply hose to a ¾ inch tap.

Note. If your dishwasher is not going to be used for an extended period of time, please turn the water supply to your dishwasher off at its supply tap and switch off its power supply at its power outlet (or unplug the appliance).

Connection of drain hose

The ideal connection of the dishwasher waste pipe is straight on to your sinks’ PVC waste trap pipe with a dishwasher spigot- an example of which is shown below in Figure 6. Also refer to location A in Figure 7, showing this connection method.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Typical waste trap

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTION CONTINUED

Important! New waste traps typically have the dishwasher spigot sealed off with plastic and requires the plumber or licensed installer to drill out the center of the spigot to allow water to flow. It’s important to ensure this spigot is drilled out before calling our Service team to respond to a dishwasher failure, as there will be a fee payable should we attend and find this non-warranty installation fault.

If you do not have a waste trap with the dishwasher spigot, you can also insert the drain hose directly into a drain pipe, providing it’s diameter is a minimum of 4cm. Refer to location B shown in Figure 7.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - positioning of the drain hose

Important! The height of the drain hose must be less than 1000mm at all times, including at its final connection. If the drain hose is higher at any point, the dishwasher will not be able to drain effectively and will cause a fault during its operation.

Note. It’s critical for the effective operation of your dishwasher, that the waste pipe is not over-bent or kinked as this will restrict flow and can cause a fault with the dishwasher. When pushing the dishwasher back into it’s housing, take special care to ensure that the waste pipe is not kinked or the dishwasher sitting on the waste pipe.

Note. The end of the drain hose must not be immersed in water to avoid back flow into the dishwasher.

You can also let the drain hose run directly into the sink, ensuring that the waste pipe is not bent or kinked, only when the sink is lower than the 1000mm maximum height.

Drain hose extensions

If you need to use a drain hose extension, please ensure that your installer uses a similar drain hose. The total length of drain hose must be no longer than 4 meters, otherwise the cleaning performance of the dishwasher will be impacted. This will also effect the manufacturer’s warranty as a non-compliant installation.

Syphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height less than 1000mm from the bottom of the dishwasher. The water drain hose connection must be fixed in place.

Preparing Your Dishwasher

RINSE AID

Rinse aid is released during the dishwasher’s final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher has been designed to use liquid rinse aids.

WARNING! Only use branded rinse aid suitable for use in dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (i.e. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance and void the Manufacturer’s Warranty.

If the rinse-aid indicator light is illuminated ( ) on the control panel, then you will need to refill the dispenser, following the instructions below. You can always estimate the amount of rinse-aid within the reservoir from the colour of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid reservoir is full, the indicator will be fully dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-aid diminishes. You should never let the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full.

Optical Level Indicator

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Optical Level Indicator

Tip! A common complaint for all dishwashers is that dishes are coming out wet after completing its program. Rinse aid will greatly improve drying results, but there are a number of factors which can effect drying performance, including the crockery items you are washing. Refer to the Dishwasher Drying Tips for some more guidelines around this topic.

FILLING THE RINSE-AID DISPENSER

Step 1 Remove the Rinse-aid dispenser cap by screwing it in an anti-clockwise direction. Refer to Figure 9.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - FILLING THE RINSE-AID DISPENSER

Step 2 Carefully pour the dishwasher rinse-aid into the reservoir, whilst being careful to avoid it overflowing. Refer to Figure 10.

Tip! Wipe up any overflow or spilt rinse-aid as this can lead to excessive foaming in the next dishwasher cycle.

FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER CONTINUED

Step 3 Re-insert the Rinse-aid cap and screw in a clockwise direction to lock it in place. Refer to Figure 11.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER CONTINUED

ADJUSTING THE RINSE-AID DISPENSER

You can increase or decrease the amount of Rinse-aid being dispensed by your dishwasher for each cycle, using the adjustment dial.

Turn the Rinse-aid dispenser dial to a number between 1 and 6, where the higher number dispensers more rinseaid. If you are finding your dishes are not drying properly or a spotted after the program has finished, adjust the dial to the next higher number until you find that your dishes are spot-free. Reduce the setting if there are sticky whitish coloured stains on your dishes or a bluish film on your glassware or knife blades.

Note. The factory default setting is 4, for the rinse-aid.

DISHWASHER DETERGENT

The chemical ingredients that compose the dishwasher detergent are necessary to remove, break-down and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

Tip! If you are finding that you are unhappy with the washing performance of your dishwasher, try using alternative wash programs (i.e. a more intensive program) and also try using alternative dishwasher detergents. We do find that some brands outperform others in terms of washing results.

WARNING! Proper use of dishwashing detergent.
• Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers. Keep your detergent dry and fresh.
• Don’t put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to start a new wash cycle.

WARNING! Dishwasher detergent is corrosive and highly dangerous! Always keep dishwasher detergent out of reach of children and follow the instructions provided by the dishwasher detergent brand for handling and storage.

FILLING THE DISHWASHER DETERGENT DISPENSER
Step 1 Press the release catch on the detergent dispenser, to open the cover. Refer to Figure 13.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - detergent dispenser

Figure 13- Release catch to open the detergent dispenser cover.

Step 2 Add the detergent (powder or tablet) into the larger cavity (labelled A in figure 14 below) which is used for the main wash cycle. For more heavily soiled wash loads, you can also add some detergent into the smaller cavity (labelled B in figure 14 below) which is used for the pre-wash cycle.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - open dishwasher detergent dispenser

Step 3 Close the dispenser cover and press on it until it locks in to place (you’ll hear a click).

Note. Please refer to the Manufacturer’s instructions on the dishwasher detergent you are using. Dosage instructions will vary.

USING THE BASKETS

Your dishwasher is supplied with an upper and lower basket, along with a removable plastic cutlery basket which
is designed to sit in the lower basket.

Adjusting the upper basket height

The height positioning of your upper basket can easily be adjusted between two settings, allowing you to accommodate taller dishes in either the upper or lower basket.

To adjust the height of the upper basket, follow these steps.

Step 1 Slide out the upper basket to the end of its extension arms.

FOLDING BACK THE GLASS RACKS

To make room for taller items in the upper basket, you can raise the glass rack upwards, allowing you to lean the tall glasses against it (i.e. holding wine glass stems). You can also remove it when it is not required for use.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - upper basket glass racks

FOLDING BACK THE RACK ARMS

The rack arms (or spikes) of the lower basket are used for holding and organising plates and bowls. These can be lowered to make room for large items as required. Simply click them downwards using light force, or click them into the upright position- refer to figure 21 below.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - FOLDING BACK THE RACK ARMS

PREPARING AND LOADING DISHES INTO YOUR BASKET RACKS

Caution! Some items are not safe for use in dishwashers and can be damaged or become discoloured when washed within a dishwasher. Always check the care information on your utensils and crockery to ensure they are dishwasher safe.

Note. Some items may require washing on a lower temperature program to prevent damage.

Tip! To prevent damage to glass and cutlery, avoid removing it immediately after the program has ended as they will be at their hottest temperature at this time.

The following items are not suitable for washing within your dishwasher:
• 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 dishes
• Pewter or copper items
• Crystal glassware
• Steel items subject to rusting
• Wooden platters
• Items made from synthetic fibres

The following items have limited suitability for washing in your dishwasher:

• Some types of glassware can become dull after a large number of washes
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing
• Glazed patterns on ceramics may fade if washed frequently

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR LOADING

Before loading your dishes into the dishwasher, please consider:
• Scraping off any large amounts of residual food on your plates and bowls.
• Soften any remnants of burnt food in pots or pans.

Note. The features and appearance of your basket racks and cutlery basket may vary slightly by model.

For optimal performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines:
• Items such as cups, glasses, pots, pans, etc. are faced downwards, so as not to collect water.
• Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded so that water can run off, rather than sit in any crevasse.
• All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over.
• All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
• Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
• Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other. To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another.
• The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard! Long and sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
• Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for reasonable consumption
of energy.

Tip! Avoid washing very small items within your dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket and interfere with a spray arm for the filter.

Caution! When loading the basket racks, be careful in particular when loading sharp items or large pots to ensure no damage is caused to the protective coating on the racks. If this protective coating is scratched of cut, it can lead to potential rusting over time. This type of damage is not covered under the Manufacturer’s warranty.

Loading the upper basket rack

The upper basket rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glass, coffee/tea cups, saucers, small plates and small bowls. Position the dishes so that they will not get moved by the spray of the water.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Loading the upper basket rack

Figure 22- Example loading of the upper basket rack.

Loading the lower basket rack

The lower basket rack is designed to hold the larger items and those most difficult to clean. Items such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates, bowls, etc, as shown in figure 23 below.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the upper spray arm.

The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispenser is 19cm, to avoid interfering with the opening of the detergent dispenser.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - Example loading of the lower basket rack

Loading the cutlery basket

Cutlery should be placed into the plastic cutlery basket separately from each other to ensure that the utensils do not nest together. When the cutlery (in particular spoons) is stacked in close proximity and nesting together, the washing performance will be impacted.

WARNING! Do not let any utensils protrude down through the bottom of the cutlery basket as this can interfere with the spray arm. Always load sharp utensils with the sharp point downwards, to avoid risk of injury.

Removing the dishes at the end of a cycle

To prevent water dripping from the upper basket onto your dishes in the lower basket rack, we recommend that you slide out and empty the lower basket rack first, followed by the upper basket rack.

Caution! Items will be hot immediately after the wash program is complete! To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher for around 15 minutes after the program has ended.

Tip! To maximise the drying performance of your dishwasher, once the wash program has completed and the audible tone has sounded, simply open your dishwasher door slightly to allow for some of the steam to escape. Leave your dishwasher for at least 15-30 minutes and you’ll find the drying results will improve greatly.

Operating Your Dishwasher

TURNING YOUR DISHWASHER ON AND STARTING A WASH CYCLE

Step 1 Load your dishwasher according to the guidelines in the Preparing Your Dishwasher section of this manual.

Step 2 Load the dishwasher detergent dispenser (refer to section Preparing Your Dishwasher in this manual).

Step 3 Close the dishwasher door and press the Power button to turn on your dishwasher, located on the control panel.

Step 4 Press the Program button (located on the control panel) to cycle through the various dishwasher programs, to select your desired wash program. It will cycle through the options in the following order: ECO > 90 Min > Rapid > Intensive > ECO etc. The LED will alight alongside the corresponding program selected.

Step 5 (optional) Add any additional options to the wash program, including Half Load or Extra Drying.
• To activate the Half Load function, press the Half Load button.
• To activate the Extra Drying function, press the Option button.

Note. Extra Drying cannot be added to the Rapid or Soak programs.

Step 6 (optional) Add any Delay start, if you would like to postpone the wash cycles start by 3, 6 or 9 hours. Simply press the Delay button to cycle through the options.

Step 7 Press the Start/Pause button to start the wash program, using the settings you’ve selected.

Tip! Whilst your dishwasher is operating a wash cycle, you can pause the program at any time by pressing the Start/Pause button. To un-pause, simply press the Start/Pause button once again and it will resume its’ wash program. When the dishwasher is in its paused status, the colon symbol between the Hours and Minutes remaining (i.e. H:MM) will stop blinking and be displayed solid.

YOUR DISHWASHERS’ WASH PROGRAMS

Your dishwasher has the following wash programs. Please refer to the table below to determine which program is most suitable for each load.

Inalto IDW604W 60cm Freestanding Dishwasher - YOUR DISHWASHERS’ WASH PROGRAMS

Note. The ECO program was used for the test cycle to obtain this dishwasher’s MEPS and WELS rating in accordance with AS/NZS 2007.1, as follows:
• Capacity: 12 place settings
• Position of upper basket: upper wheels on rails
• Rinse aid setting: 6
• Open the door slightly (~50mm) to assist with the drying of dishes after the completion of each wash.

CHANGING THE PROGRAM

Once the dishwasher has started a wash cycle program, you can change the selected program within the first minute or so, otherwise the detergent may have been already released. When you start a new program, the dishwasher will drain any residual water, hence you will need to re-fill the detergent dispenser in the event that it’s already dispensed it.

To change the program within the first minute, press the Start/Pause button and the dishwasher will enter it’s standby state. Press and hold the Program button for 3 seconds. You can now press the program button to cycle through the programs and select an alternative wash program. Once you’ve selected the new program, press the Play/Pause button once more to start.

The colon symbol between the Hours and Minutes remaining (i.e. H:MM) will flash intermittently once running again.

Note. If you open the door during a wash cycle, the dishwasher will automatically pause. The colon symbol between the Hours and Minutes remaining (i.e. H:MM) will stop flashing to indicate that the dishwasher is in standby mode. An audible tone will sound every 1 minute until you close the door. After you close the dishwasher door, it will automatically resume its wash program after 10 seconds.

Caution! It is dangerous to open the dishwasher door during operation. The hot water or steam inside can easily scald you.

FORGOT TO ADD A DISH

A forgotten dish can be added any time before the detergent dispenser has been released.

Step 1 Press the Start/Pause button to put the dishwasher into standby mode.

Step 2 Open the door a little, allowing for the spray arms to stop spinning, before opening the door fully.

Step 3 Add any forgotten dishes or cutlery.

Step 4 Close the door.

Step 5 Press the Start/Pause button for the machine to resume its program after 10 seconds.

AT THE COMPLETION OF A WASH CYCLE

When your dishwasher has completed its wash program cycle, an audible tone will sound for 8 seconds, before stopping. Follow these steps for optimal drying performance.

Tip! The colon symbol between the Hours and Minutes remaining (i.e. H:MM) will be solid (i.e. not flashing/blinking) to indicate the program has ended. The LED next to the Program Ended Indicator will also be illuminated.

Step 1 Switch off your dishwasher using the Power button. Turn the water supply off at its tap.

Step 2 Open the door slightly (around 50mm) to allow for the steam to escape. Leave the dishwasher for 15 minutes where possible, to allow for your dishes to cool a little. This will also assist the drying process.

Step 3 Unload the dishwasher, starting with the lower basket rack first, before unloading the upper basket rack. This will help to avoid water dripping from the upper basket rack onto your lower dishes.

Note. It is normal for the dishwasher and it’s racks to be wet inside. Plasticware will not dry as well as ceramic crockery, porcelain or metal cutlery, as plastic by nature won’t get as hot nor retain heat in the same way. Due to this, plastic very rarely dries within a dishwasher.

Caution! Be careful when opening the dishwasher door. The hot water or steam inside can easily scald you.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Some simple maintenance and cleaning steps must be followed to ensure that your dishwasher continues to operate at its optimum and without issue. Failure to follow these basic maintenance and cleaning steps may void your Manufacturer’s warranty or result in a service fee in the event of a technician attending site under warranty.

EXTERNAL CARE

Doors and seals

Using a soft, lightly damp cloth, wipe down the door seals to remove any residual food deposits. We recommend this process at least monthly, or when an accidental spill occurs dirtying the door seal area.When the dishwasher is being loaded, it’s common for food and drink residues to drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door and the rubber seals themselves. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.

The control panel

Using a soft, lightly damp cloth, wipe down the control panel when cleaning is required. After cleaning, ensure that you dry the control panel thoroughly.

WARNING! To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and other electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner or pressure cleaner, of any kind. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces as these may scratch the finish.

INTERNAL CARE

Base of the dishwasher

Residual food can build up at the base of the dishwasher, in particular near where the door meets the base. Using a soft, damp cloth, wipe any residual food residue away and around the rubber seals. This should be undertaken at least monthly or more if required.

Filter system

Having a clean filter system is critical to the ongoing cleaning performance of your dishwasher and this basic cleaning process is often neglected. The filter system is located in the base of the wash cabinet and it retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. This collected debris does cause the filters to clog over time and its important to regularly check your filters and clean them as required. We recommend this to be done weekly when regularly using your dishwasher.

Follow the steps below to clean your filter system.

Note. Pictures are for reference only and your filter design may vary slightly depending on your model.

Step 1 Hold the coarse filter (round plastic head protruding from the metal mesh filter) and rotate it anticlockwise to unlock the filter. Lift the filter upwards and out of the dishwasher, including the metal mesh main filter.

Step 2 With the filter assembly removed from the dishwasher, the fine filter can be pulled off the bottom of the filter assembly (refer to figure 25 below). This fine filter is covered by a fine mesh. Rinse this under running water from your tap and wipe any residual food residue off the filter.

Step 3 Detach the course filter by gently squeezing the tabs at the top and pulling it away from the mesh main filter. Under running tap water, clean both the mesh main filter and the course filter, removing any residual food or foreign objects. For a more thorough clean you may like to use a soft cleaning brush (i.e. a soft bristtled toothbrush).

Step 4 Before re-fitting the filter housing into your dishwasher, it’s worth checking that the housing in the base of the dishwasher is clean and clear of foreign objects (including bone fragments, broken glass, etc).

Caution! We recommend wearing gloves to protect your hands from any potential broken glass or sharp foreign objects that may be sitting in the base of the filter housing.

Step 5 Reassemble the filter in the reverse order of disassembly. Replace the filter into the base of the dishwasher and turn the coarse filter head in a clockwise direction until it locks back into place. You will notice the arrows to align on the course filter and the metal main filter when locked in position.

WARNING! Do not over tighten the filters. Put the filters back in the correct sequence and securely lock in place, otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage or damage internally.

WARNING! Never use the dishwasher without the filters in place. Improper replacement of the filter will reduced the performance level of the dishwasher and may damage your dishes and utensils.

Note. Failure to regularly clean the filter will increase the risk of debris entering the internal system and causing damage to your appliance. Failure to follow the regularly maintenance steps outlined may lead to voiding your Manufacturer’s warranty.

Cleaning the spray arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly, as hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings.

To clean the spray arms, follow the steps below.

Step 1 To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut and rotate the arm clockwise to remove it.

Step 2 To remove the lower spray arm, simply lift it in an upwards direction.

Step 3 Wash both spray arms in soapy warm water and use a soft brush (i.e. a tooth brush) to clean the jets. Rinse well and replace them in your dishwasher.

INTERNAL CARE CONTINUED

Cleaning the interior cabinet

Over time, grime can accumulate on the interior walls of the appliance. A quick wipe down will do wonders for removing any dishwasher odour which can develop over time.

Step 1 Remove both the upper and lower basket racks and run them under hot water within the kitchen sink.

Step 2 Scrub the inside of the dishwasher with a rag or sponge dampened with hot water. If there is stuck on food residue, use some white vinegar to help remove it. Wipe down the rubber door gaskets (attached to the dishwasher cabinet) as these can collect food residue, mould and mildew.

Removing dishwasher odour

If your dishwasher has developed an odour and you’ve completed all of the internal cleaning steps listed above, you may like to try a cleaning cycle using some white vinegar and baking soda. Follow the steps below.

Step 1 Empty the appliance of all dishes.

Step 2 Place one cup of white vinegar in a stable bowl in the upper basket rack of your dishwasher.

Step 3 Set your dishwasher to the Intensive program and run for a full cycle. This is the hottest program for your dishwasher and the acids within the vinegar will help to break down any deposits on the interior of your dishwasher.

Step 4 Remove the bowl from the dishwasher once your cycle is complete. Sprinkle a cup of baking soda on the floor of the dishwasher.

Step 5 Set your dishwasher to the 90 Min program and run another empty cycle. This will dissolve all the baking soda and eliminate any remaining odour within your dishwasher.

FROST PROTECTION

Please take frost protection measures with your dishwasher in winter, particularly when you reside in cold regions.

After each washing cycle, follow these steps:

• Turn off the power to your dishwasher at the power point.
• Turn off the water supply to your dishwasher, at the supply tap and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve on the rear of your dishwasher.
• Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. Use a bucket to capture the water.
• Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve at the rear of your dishwasher.
• Remove the filter assembly from the bottom of your dishwasher and use a sponge to soak up any residual water sitting in the filter housing.

Caution! Failure to follow these steps in regions prone to freezing can result in damage to your dishwasher. The manufacturer’s warranty will not apply if these steps haven’t been followed.

GENERAL CARE ADVICE

After every wash

After every wash cycle, turn off the water supply to the dishwasher and leave the door slightly ajar to that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.

Remove the plug

Before undertaking any cleaning or maintenance steps, always remove the dishwasher’s plug from it’s power outlet (power socket).

WARNING! Risk of electrocution if this step is not followed.

No solvents or abrasive cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, never use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water. To remove stubborn stains or spots from the surface of the interior, use a clothe dampened with water and some white vinegar, or use a specially designed dishwasher cleaner available from your local supermarket.

When your dishwasher will not be used from sometime

It is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from its power outlet (power socket), turn off the water supply at its supply tap and leave the door of the dishwasher slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer, prevent odours from forming inside the appliance and prevent mould and mildew from developing.

Moving the appliance

In the event that the appliance must be moved, please try to keep it in its vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back. Failure to follow this step can lead to internal damage.

Door seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form within a dishwasher is the residual food that remains trapped within the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp cloth will prevent this from occurring.
