Need help?Do you have a question about the Electrolux ESS42220SW and is the answer not in the manual?
This document is a user manual for the Electrolux ESS42220SW Dishwasher, providing comprehensive instructions for its safe installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The Electrolux ESS42220SW is a household dishwasher designed for cleaning dishes and tableware in an indoor environment. It operates by spraying water and detergent onto the dishes to remove food residues, followed by rinsing and drying phases. The appliance includes a water softener system to manage water hardness, ensuring optimal washing results and preventing limescale buildup. It also features a rinse aid dispenser to aid in drying and prevent streaks. The dishwasher offers various programmes tailored to different levels of soil and types of load, including an ECO programme for efficient water and energy consumption, and an AUTO programme that senses soil level and load quantity to adjust settings automatically. A dedicated cleaning programme is available for internal maintenance, designed to remove limescale and grease.
The dishwasher is activated via an on/off button, and programmes are selected using a programme button, with indicators showing the active programme. A display shows programme duration and other relevant information. Users can set a delay start for programmes, allowing the appliance to begin operation at a later time. The "Auto Off" function automatically deactivates the appliance when not operating, reducing energy consumption.
Several options are available to enhance washing and drying results:
The water softener level can be adjusted based on the local water hardness, which is crucial for effective cleaning and preventing limescale. The rinse aid level is also adjustable, impacting drying performance and preventing streaks. The AirDry function automatically opens the dishwasher door during the drying phase to improve drying results and reduce energy consumption. For safety, it is advised not to close the door within 2 minutes of automatic opening to avoid damage, and AirDry can be deactivated if children have access to the appliance.
Loading the baskets correctly is emphasized for optimal results, ensuring items do not touch or obstruct spray arms. Hollow items should be placed with openings facing downwards, and light items in the upper basket. The upper basket can be moved to accommodate larger items in the lower basket. Detergent, salt, and rinse aid should be used according to manufacturer instructions and water hardness. Multi-tabs can be used, but separate use of detergent, salt, and rinse aid is recommended for very hard water.
Regular maintenance is essential for the dishwasher's performance and longevity. The manual provides instructions for internal and external cleaning, as well as specific components.
The salt container and rinse aid dispenser should be refilled when indicators are on. The manual also includes a troubleshooting section to address common problems and alarm codes, offering possible causes and solutions, and advising when to contact an Authorised Service Centre.
