DETERGENT USE

Only use detergent made specifically for dishwashers. Do not use rinse aids. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep away from children. Use long programs when using Detergent tablets. Short programs may not allow the tablets to fully dissolve.

  • The use of Normal washing program in combination with Low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes reduces pollution and is good for your dishes.
  • The detergent must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle. Your dishwasher uses less detergent than traditional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Unloading the dishwasher:
It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.

FORCED DRAINAGE OPERATION:
In standby mode, press FRUIT + RAPID for 3 seconds.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

FILTERING SYSTEM
The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump. For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. For this reason, it is a good idea tore move the larger food particles trapping in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull the cup handle in the upward direction.

FARBERWARE-FCDMGDWH-Portable-Countertop-Dishwasher-With-Window-
fig-7

Filter assembly

  • Inspect the filters for blocking every time the dishwasher has been used.
  • By unscrewing the coarse filter. you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean the filters under running water.

CARING FOR THE DISHWASHER

The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth and dry thoroughly. The exterior use a good appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Cleaning the door
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp cloth. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.

Protect against freezing
Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Each time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

  1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
  2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
  3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
  4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
  5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to use up water in the sump.

Cleaning the spray arms
The spray arms can be easily removed for periodic cleaning of the nozzles, to prevent possible clogging. Wash them under running water and carefully replace them in their seats, checking that their rotary movement is in no way impeded. Grasp the middle of the spray arm, pull it upwards to remove it. Wash the arms under a jet of running water and return them carefully to their seat. After reassembly, check that the spray arms turn freely. Otherwise, check that they have been installed correctly.

How to keep your dishwasher in shape

  • After every wash: After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

  • Remove the plug: Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

  • No solvents or abrasive cleaning: To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water with a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

  • When it is not in need for a long time: It is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

  • Moving the appliance: If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in
    the vertical position. If necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

  • Seals: One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
