Maintenance

Check out our tips to prevent many common issues and extend the life of your Electrolux Dishwasher.

Regular Cleaning of Filters

The filters must be checked and cleaned regularly to ensure optimal performance. Incorrect positioning or fitting of the filters can result in poor washing results and potential damage. Never operate the dishwasher without filters in place.

Proper Loading Techniques

Ensure that the dishwasher baskets are not overloaded and that dishes are arranged to allow the spray arms to rotate freely. Incorrect arrangement can prevent water from reaching all parts of the dishes.

Cleaning the Spray Arms

Check that the spray arms are free to rotate and not obstructed by dishware. Never attempt to remove the spray arms. If residues clog the holes, use a cocktail stick to clear them.

Water Drain and Inlet Hose Check

Ensure the water inlet and drain hoses are correctly laid and not bent or squashed. Incorrect connection can prevent the dishwasher from draining or filling with water.

External and Internal Cleaning

Clean the external surfaces with a damp soft cloth and neutral detergents. Regularly clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers with a damp cloth to prevent build-up.
