Need help?Do you have a question about the Electrolux ESL5340LO and is the answer not in the manual?
This document is a user manual for the Electrolux ESL5340LO dishwasher, providing comprehensive instructions for its safe and efficient operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The dishwasher is designed for household use and similar applications, such as staff kitchen areas, hotels, motels, and bed & breakfast environments. It is intended for washing dishwasher-safe items and has a maximum capacity of 13 place settings. The appliance features a Beam-on-Floor light that indicates the program status: a red light signifies the program is running, a green light indicates completion, and a flashing red light signals a malfunction. This visual indicator helps users monitor the dishwasher's progress without needing to open the door.
For daily use, the dishwasher requires the user to open the water tap, activate the appliance, load the baskets, add detergent, and select the appropriate program. The control panel includes an on/off button, a display, and buttons for Delay, Programme (up/down), XtraDry, TimeManager, and Reset. The display shows the program number and duration.
The dishwasher offers several programs tailored to different soil levels and load types. The P1 ECO program is the most efficient for normal soil, while P2 AUTO automatically adjusts settings based on soil level and load quantity. P3 is for heavy soil and includes a high-temperature rinsing phase for enhanced hygiene. P4 is a short program for fresh soil, and P5 is a quick rinse program for preventing food remains from bonding and odors from forming.
The appliance includes a water softener system to remove minerals from the water supply, which is crucial for optimal washing results and appliance longevity. Users must adjust the water softener level according to their local water hardness. The manual provides a detailed table for setting the water softener level based on German, French, Clarke degrees, and mmol/l. The salt refill indicator notifies users when to replenish the salt container.
A rinse aid dispenser is also integrated, automatically releasing rinse aid during the hot rinse phase to ensure streak-free and stain-free drying. The rinse aid empty notification can be activated or deactivated, depending on whether multi-tabs with integrated rinse aid are used.
The dishwasher features an Auto Off function that automatically deactivates the appliance after 5 minutes of inactivity or program completion, contributing to energy saving. A delay start function allows users to postpone the program start for up to 24 hours.
Maintenance features are crucial for the dishwasher's performance. Regular cleaning of the filters is emphasized, as dirty filters and clogged spray arms can reduce washing effectiveness. The filter system consists of three parts that need to be removed, washed, and reassembled correctly. The manual provides step-by-step instructions for this process. The spray arms should also be checked for clogged holes, which can be cleared with a thin pointed object. External cleaning involves using a moist soft cloth and neutral detergents, avoiding abrasive products. Internal cleaning requires a soft damp cloth for the appliance interior and the rubber gasket of the door.
The manual also provides extensive troubleshooting information, listing common problems, alarm codes (such as 10 for water fill issues and 20 for drain issues), possible causes, and solutions. It advises users to check basic issues like power connection, water tap status, and filter cleanliness before contacting an Authorized Service Centre. For problems related to washing and drying results, the manual suggests adjusting rinse aid dosage, selecting appropriate programs, and ensuring proper loading of baskets. It also addresses issues like limescale deposits, unusual foam, and rust traces on cutlery, offering solutions such as adjusting water softener levels, using correct detergents, and proper loading practices.
The manual highlights the importance of using original spare parts and provides contact information for customer care and service, including the website for usage advice, troubleshooting, and product registration. It also includes environmental concerns, encouraging users to recycle packaging and dispose of the appliance responsibly at designated facilities.
