GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• This dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This dishwasher is equipped with a cord with a grounding conductor and a grounding plug. DO NOT , under any circumstances, cut or remove the grounding plug from the power cord.
• The plug must be plugged into an outlet that has been installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Improper connection of the grounding conductor can result in risk of electrical shock.
• Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are unsure as to whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher. If it does not fit the outlet, have a qualified electrician install a proper outlet.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Look at the rating label for the voltage rating (120 V) and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, service agent, or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid any hazards.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Ensure that the voltage and frequency of the dishwasher corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket that is grounded properly. If your electrical sockets are not appropriate for the plug, replace the sockets rather than using an adapter.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Filter System
NOTES:

• Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. Improper placement of the filters may reduce the performance level of the dishwasher and damage dishes and utensils.
• Make sure the filters are properly assembled.
• The entire filter system should be cleaned once a week. Remove food remnants and clean the filters under running water.
• When cleaning the filters, do not knock them against surfaces. This can contort the filters and affect the performance of your dishwasher.

The filters prevent larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump. For best performance and results, regularly clean the filter system. The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat filter (main filter), and a micro filter (fine filter).

1. Coarse filter : This filter traps larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass that could block the drain
2. Fine filter: This filter catches soil and food residue in the cylindrical base and prevents the soil from being redeposited on the dishes during wash cycle.
3. Main filter: Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are broken down by a special jet on the spray arm and flushed down the drain.

To Remove the Filter System

1. Turn the fine filter counterclockwise to remove it from the machine.
   

2. Push the tabs at the bottom center of the fine filter to separate the coarse filter from the fine filter

3. Remove the main filter by pulling upwards
   

To Clean the Filter System

1. Rinse the filter system under running water. Use a soft cleaning brush to clean the coarse filter and the fine filter.
   

2. To reinstall the filter system, position the main filter on its seat and push downwards, align the tabs on the bottom of the coarse filter with the corresponding hole of the fine filter, and then insert the coarse filter into the fine filter. Then, place the fine filter into its seat and rotate clockwise to tighten
   

Spray Arms

The upper and lower spray arms can be easily removed for periodic cleaning of the nozzles, preventing potential clogging. Wash them under running water and carefully replace them in their seats, checking that rotary movement is in no way impeded.

To Remove and Clean the Spray Arms

1. Open the door and take out the basket.

2. Remove the lower spray arm by grasping the middle arm and pulling upwards. Unscrew the upper spray arm by rotating counterclockwise
   

3. Wash the arms under running water and brush each spray arm. Use tools with a sharp point, such as a needle, to clean nozzles if needed.

4. Replace the lower spray arm to its seat by pushing downward until it clicks into place. Replace the upper spray arm by screwing clockwise into its seat. Ensure that the spray arm movement is not impeded before running another cycle.

Dishwasher Care and Maintenance

Daily Maintenance

• The control panel and exterior should be cleaned by using a lightly damp cloth. After cleaning, make sure to dry thoroughly. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads, or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little vinegar.
• There may be some oil stains left on the edge of the dishwasher’s interior wall or door after heavily soiled loads have been washed. To clean the edge around the door, only use a soft, warm, damp cloth. Avoid getting water inside the door lock and electrical components.
• Regularly clean the door seals with a damp sponge to prevent odors from trapped food particles in the door seal

WARNING: Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel, as it may damage the door lock and electrical components. Abrasive agents or paper towels should not be used due to risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless-steel surface.

Protecting the Dishwasher from Freezing

Please take frost protection measures during the wintertime. After every wash cycle, take the following steps:

1. Turn off the dishwasher. Cut off electrical power from the dishwasher.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet hose from the back of the unit.
3. Drain the water from the inlet hose and inlet port (Use a pan or bucket to catch the water).
4. Reconnect the water inlet hose to the inlet port.
5. Remove the filter system and use a sponge to absorb the water that is in the filter (sump) area.

If your dishwasher no longer works due to freezing or ice, please contact our after-sales service team

General Tips

• In order to keep your dishwasher in good working order, the following suggestions should be observed:
• Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug.
• After every wash – Turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
• If the dishwasher will not be used for an extended period of time – It is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty, then power off the dishwasher, remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply, force drain the water tank, and leave the appliance door slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odors.
• Moving the appliance – If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. Do not transport the unit on its side or upside down.
• Water connection – Our water hose has a 3/4″ GHT female connector, so it matches with faucets with a 3/4″ GHT male connector. Connect the female connector to your faucet and make sure it is fastened tightly in place. Please Note: If the supplied water inlet hose does not fit your faucet, you may need to buy a 3/4″ GHT threaded faucet adapter from a plumbing supply manufacturer. If you are unsure of what to do, please feel free to contact our after-sales service team.
• Water drainage – The drain hose must be properly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water drain hose is not kinked or in any way impeded. If the sink is higher than the surface where you have placed your dishwasher, it will be necessary to drain excess water into a bucket that is in a lower position than the dishwasher. If you need a drain hose extension, be sure to use a similar drain hose, and that it is no longer than 12 feet long. Otherwise, the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.
