Candy CIB 5B2D3FB User Manual

To reset the dishwasher, turn off the appliance using the power button, wait for a few seconds, and then turn it back on. If a reset is needed due to an error code, refer to the user manual for specific instructions regarding that code.
Check if the drain hose is kinked or blocked. Ensure the sink’s drain is not clogged. Clean the filter and pump located at the bottom of the dishwasher, as debris can prevent proper drainage.
It is recommended to clean the filter at least once a month to ensure optimal performance. If you use the dishwasher frequently or wash heavily soiled items, consider cleaning it more often.
Spots on glassware can be caused by hard water. Use a rinse aid to help prevent water spots and ensure that the dishwasher salt compartment is filled if your model supports it. Adjusting the water softener settings might also help.
Ensure that the rinse aid dispenser is filled, as it helps with drying. Select a drying program or option if available, and avoid overloading the dishwasher to ensure proper air circulation.
Check for obstructions like utensils or racks preventing the door from closing properly. Inspect the latch mechanism for damage and ensure the dishwasher is level, as improper leveling can affect the door alignment.
Remove the spray arms by unscrewing or unclipping them, depending on the model. Rinse them under running water, using a toothpick or small brush to clear any blocked holes. Reattach the arms securely after cleaning.
Unusual noises may indicate items inside are hitting the spray arms. Ensure dishes are loaded properly. Check for any loose or foreign objects in the dishwasher that may be causing noise.
Place large pots and pans on the bottom rack facing downwards. Avoid blocking the spray arms and ensure that the items don’t prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.
Regularly clean the filter and door seals, and leave the door slightly ajar after cycles to allow air circulation. Run an empty cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or vinegar to remove any lingering odors.
