To start a wash cycle, load your dishes, add detergent, close the door, select your desired wash program using the control panel, and press the start button.
Check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged, ensure the sink drain is clear, and inspect the dishwasher's filter for blockages. Clean the filter and hose if necessary.
To clean the filter, remove the lower rack, twist the filter counterclockwise to remove it, rinse it under running water, and replace it by twisting it back into place.
Ensure you are using a rinse aid, check that the selected cycle includes a drying phase, and avoid overloading the dishwasher as this can impede proper drying.
Ensure dishes are properly loaded and not touching each other, check for foreign objects in the spray arms, and ensure the dishwasher is level to prevent vibrations.
It is recommended to clean the interior of your dishwasher once a month to prevent buildup of odors and ensure optimal performance.
Load cutlery with handles facing down in the basket, ensuring that items do not nest together for optimal cleaning. Use the designated cutlery tray if available.
To use the delay start function, select your desired wash program, press the delay start button until the desired delay time is displayed, and then press start.
Regularly clean the filter, check and clean the spray arms, wipe the door seals, and run a vinegar wash cycle monthly to remove mineral deposits.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the start button for a few seconds until the indicator lights turn off, then release the button and restart the dishwasher.
