Care and cleaning
Cleaning the strainer
The filter plate is designed to be self cleaning
but occasionally food scraps may collect. Sweep
these into the strainer before emptying.
The strainer should be regularly checked and
removed for cleaning, if necessary.
1
Unclip the strainer from the filter by squeezing
the tabs together and lifting.
2
Empty, rinse under water and replace.
Cleaning the dishwasher
The area around the outside of the seal and door
may need wiping down from time to time.
Use a mild soapy solution and wipe over with a
damp cloth.
Let the Dishwasher cool down before touching inside metal.
We do not recommend the use of abrasive, solvent or alkaline cleaners as they may
damage the surface finishes of the Dishwasher.
Cleaning the spray arms
1
Unload both Dishwasher baskets and slide them out. The top basket requires the two front rail
clips on the slides to be removed before the basket can be pulled out.
2
To remove the rail clips press the top plastic tabs together and slide up. Once the front two
rail clips have been removed the top basket will slide out.
3
Turn the spray arm cap in the ‘unlock’ direction (anti-clockwise) and lift off.
4
Remove the spray arm.
5
Shake out all foreign particles, rinse under water and replace the spray arm back into the
Dishwasher.
6
Ensure each spray arm has the side with most holes in it facing in the UPWARD direction. The
top spray arm is plastic and the stainless steel spray arm is the lower.
7
Replace the spray arm cap and turn in the ‘lock’ direction (clockwise).
Holiday time
If the Dishwasher is not to be used for some time, follow these steps:
1
Ensure the baskets are empty.
2
Leave the inside of the Dishwasher clean.
3
Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.
4
Turn off BOTH the electricity and water supply to the Dishwasher.
