To start a wash cycle, ensure the dishwasher is loaded and the door is closed. Select the desired program using the program selector button, then press the start button.
Check the filter and drain pump for any blockages. Ensure the drain hose is not kinked and is installed at the correct height.
To clean the filter, remove the lower rack, twist the filter assembly counterclockwise, and lift it out. Rinse the filter under running water and replace it by turning it clockwise.
Ensure that you are using a rinse aid, as it helps with the drying process. Also, check that the selected program includes a drying phase.
It is recommended to clean the spray arms every 3-6 months. Remove them by unscrewing, and rinse under running water to clear any blockages.
Check for obstacles in the door area, ensure the racks are pushed in completely, and inspect the door latch for damage or misalignment.
Refer to the user manual to adjust the water hardness setting. Enter the settings mode, use the buttons to select the water hardness level, and save the setting.
Ensure that dishes are loaded properly and not touching each other. Check for loose items in the dishwasher and inspect the spray arms for obstructions.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the Start button for about 3 seconds until the display shows a reset confirmation.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the filters, checking and cleaning the spray arms, checking the rinse aid and salt levels, and wiping the door seals.
