Maintenance and Cleaning
Some simple maintenance and cleaning steps must be followed to ensure that your dishwasher continues to
operate at its optimum and without issue. Failure to follow these basic maintenance and cleaning steps may
void your Manufacturer’s warranty or result in a service fee in the event of a technician attending site under
warranty.
EXTERNAL CARE
Doors and seals
Using a soft, lightly damp cloth, wipe down the door seals to remove any residual food deposits. We
recommend this process at least monthly, or when an accidental spill occurs dirtying the door seal area.
When the dishwasher is being loaded, it’s common for food and drink residues to drip onto the sides of the
dishwasher door and the rubber seals themselves. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not
accessed by water from the spray arms. Any deposits should be wiped o before the door is closed.
The control panel
Using a soft, lightly damp cloth, wipe down the control panel when cleaning is required. After cleaning,
ensure that you dry the control panel thoroughly.
WARNING! To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and other electrical components, do not use
a spray cleaner or pressure cleaner, of any kind. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer
surfaces as these may scratch the nish.
INTERNAL CARE
Base of the dishwasher
Residual food can build up at the base of the dishwasher, in particular near where the door meets the base.
Using a soft, damp cloth, wipe any residual food residue away and around the rubber seals. This should be
undertaken at least monthly or more if required.
Filter system
Having a clean lter system is critical to the ongoing cleaning performance of your dishwasher and this
basic cleaning process is often neglected. The lter system is located in the base of the wash cabinet and it
retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. This collected debris does cause the lters to clog over time
and its important to regularly check your lters and clean them as required. We recommend this to be done
weekly when regularly using your dishwasher.
Follow the steps below to clean your lter system.
Note. Pictures are for reference only and your lter design may vary slightly depending on your model.
Step 1 Hold the coarse lter (round plastic head protruding from the metal mesh lter) and rotate it anti-
clockwise to unlock the lter. Lift the lter upwards and out of the dishwasher, including the metal mesh
main lter.
