FAQs

How do I clean the filters?

Remove the filters from the bottom of the dishwasher. Rinse them under running water to remove food particles. Replace them after cleaning.

What type of detergent should I use?

Use a dishwasher detergent specifically designed for dishwashers, in either powder, liquid, or tablet form.

How often should I add rinse aid?

The rinse aid indicator will let you know when to refill. Usually, this is about every month or two, depending on usage.

How do I adjust the upper basket?

The upper basket can be adjusted to three different height levels. Even when fully loaded, it can be easily moved up and down.

What is the SteamGloss function?

SteamGloss adds heat at the end of the program to reduce water droplet size, resulting in drier and shinier dishes.

What is the warranty?

The product includes a 7 year spare part retention.

Can I use the dishwasher without salt?

No, the dishwasher requires salt to soften the water and prevent limescale buildup. Refill when the salt indicator lights up.

What is the purpose of the HygieneIntense program?

The HygieneIntense program uses high temperatures to eliminate over 99.999% of bacteria and viruses, providing extra hygiene for your dishes.
