- Page 2: Cleaning filters involves checking for residue after each wash and removing the filter system. The spray arms should be cleaned by unscrewing the upper spray arm and checking for blockages under running water. The wastewater pump needs to be cleaned by removing any remnants of food and foreign bodies in the area of the impeller. Troubleshooting includes identifying faults such as water supply issues and blocked wastewater pumps. Common causes for faults include kinks in the supply hose and loose covers on the wastewater pump. Adjusting the rinse aid setting may resolve issues with streaks on glassware. Rust spots on cutlery can occur if items are not sufficiently rust-resistant. Filters may become soiled or blocked, necessitating cleaning to ensure proper function. Proper arrangement of tableware is essential to avoid blockages and ensure effective cleaning. If electronics detect a fault, resetting the appliance may be required.
