To start a wash cycle, load the dishwasher, add detergent to the dispenser, select the desired program using the program button, and press the Start button. The dishwasher will begin the selected cycle.
Check the filter and drain pump for blockages, ensure the drain hose is not kinked, and verify that the sink's drain is not clogged. Regular maintenance of these components can prevent drainage issues.
Remove the lower basket, twist and lift out the filter in the bottom of the dishwasher, rinse it under running water, and replace it securely. Regular cleaning of the filter is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
Error codes indicate specific issues, such as water inlet problems or drainage issues. Refer to the user manual for a list of error codes and their meanings to troubleshoot effectively.
Clean the spray arms once a month to remove any debris or blockages. Remove them by unscrewing and rinsing under warm water. This ensures they function properly and spray water evenly.
No, you should not use regular dish soap as it can cause excessive sudsing and potentially damage the dishwasher. Use only dishwasher-specific detergents.
Consult the user manual to determine the current water hardness level and adjust the setting accordingly using the control panel. This helps in achieving optimal cleaning results and prevents limescale buildup.
Regularly clean the filter, spray arms, and door seals. Check for blockages in the drainage system and descale the appliance as needed, depending on the water hardness in your area.
Ensure that the rinse aid compartment is filled and select a higher drying setting if available. Using a rinse aid helps in achieving better drying results by reducing water spots.
Check for obstructions like utensils or racks that might be preventing the door from closing. Inspect the door latch for damage and ensure the dishwasher is level. Adjust the leveling legs if necessary.
