Clean the outer surfaces and door-lining of the dishwasher regularly using a soft cloth moistened
with water or with a normal detergent suitable for painted surfaces.
Clean the door gaskets with a damp sponge.
Periodically (once or twice a year) it is advisable to clean the tank and gaskets, using a soft cloth
and water to remove any deposits.

CLEANING THE SPRAY ARM, TRAVELLING VERSION
To remove the TRAVELLING spray arm, take hold of it and raise it to release both the spray arm
and the pipe from the tank, then detach the spray arm from the pipe. Wash both the pipe and the
spray arm in running water, re-attach the spray arm to the pipe and return the assembly to the seat
provided in the tank.
Once the assembly has been put back in place, check that the spray arm turns freely (turn
through a couple of revolutions by hand) and that the pipe is able to travel without
impediments.
Otherwise, check that it has been fitted correctly.
