What To Do
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove any
other appliances sharing the same circuit with the
Dishwasher.
Make sure the Dishwasher is turned ON and the door
is closed securely.
Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into the
wall socket.
Check that the water supply is connected properly and
the water is turned ON.
Make sure to close the door properly and latch it.
Check the Drain Hose.
Check the Coarse Filter.
(See section titled "Cleaning the Filter").
Check the kitchen sink to make sure it is draining well.
If the problem is the kitchen sink not draining, a
plumber may be needed rather than a serviceman for
Dishwashers.
Use only the special Dishwasher detergent to avoid
suds. If this occurs, open the Dishwasher and let suds
evaporate.
Add approx 4.5 litres of cold water to the tub. Close
and latch the Dishwasher, then select any cycle.
Dishwasher will drain out the water at the fi rst step.
Open the door after draining is stopped and check if
the suds is disappeared.
Repeat if necessary.
Always wipe up rinse-aid spills immediately.
Make sure that the detergent is the one without
colourant.
To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with
Dishwasher detergent and wear rubber gloves.
Never use any other cleaner than Dishwasher
detergent for the risk of foaming or suds.
Check that the water supply is connected properly and
the water is turned ON. Check the inlet fi lter. If the inlet
fi lter is clogged, clean it with a toothbrush in running
water.
Wrap warm towels around the joints of the Inlet Hose.
Disconnect the Inlet Hose, and soak them in warm
water (50 °C or lower)
Interrupt the programme, and rearrange the items
which are obstructing the spray arm.
Interrupt the programme, and rearrange the items of
crockery.
This has no infl uence on the Dishwasher function.
If in doubt, contact a suitably qualifi ed plumber.
