Integrated ("i") dishwashers "i"- dishwashers are designed for installation under a continuous countertop. The control panel with its accessories is included with the "i"- dishwasher in a separate package for on-site installation. [. . . ] Once the door has been opened, allow 20-30 seconds for the internal temperature to equalize before closing it again, and make sure it clicks into place. 33 Unloading the dishwasher Unloading the dishwasher Dishes tend to break and chip easier when they are hot. Allow the dishes to cool down until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading them. If the door is opened at the end of the drying cycle, the dishes will cool much faster. Unload the lower basket first, then the upper basket and cutlery tray (if so equipped). This will prevent water drops from the upper basket or cutlery tray from falling onto the dishes in the lower basket. 34 Cleaning and care Cleaning and care Cleaning the filters in the wash cabinet. The combination filter in the base of the wash cabinet should be regularly inspected and cleaned as necessary. Any broken glass or dishware should be removed immediately upon discovery. Use caution when cleaning the filters, non-return valve or drain pump, as glass or bone splinters may be caught in the bottom of the wash cabinet. Turn the handle counterclockwise to release the filters. Lift the combination filter out of the machine. A nylon brush can be used, if necessary. 35 Cleaning and care Turn the combination filter over and open the coarse filter cover by pulling back on the locking tab. After cleaning, make sure that the coarse filter cover is properly locked in place. Replace the combination filter so that it lies flat in the base of the wash cabinet. Secure it by turning the handle clockwise. 36 Cleaning and care Cleaning the spray arms. On rare occasions particles of food may get stuck in the spray arm jets. They can be easily cleaned as follows: Dishwashers with cutlery basket: Unscrew the upper spray arm. Push up on the upper spray arm to engage the tooth-wheel mechanism and then unscrew the spray arm. To remove the middle spray arm located beneath the upper basket, gently push upwards until it engages in the ratchet b, then unscrew it c. To clean the spray arms, use a pointed object to push the the food particles into the jets. Important: After replacing the spray arms, check that they rotate freely. Lift up on the lower spray arm to remove it. 37 Cleaning and care Cleaning the drain pump and non-return valve. Use caution when cleaning the filters, non-return valve or drain pump, as glass or bone splinters may be caught in the bottom of the wash cabinet. If the water in the dishwasher is not completely drained at the end of a program, the drain pump or non-return valve may be blocked. Rinse the non-return valve under running water. Tilt the locking clamp to the side. The drain pump is situated under the non-return valve (see arrow). Before replacing the non-return valve, check to make sure that nothing is obstructing the drain pump. Spin the impeller several times in both directions; it should turn smoothly. Carefully replace the non-return valve and secure it with the locking clamp. Replace and secure the combination filter. 38 Cleaning and care Cleaning the water intake filter. The water valve housing on the inlet hose contains electrical components and should not be immersed, or run through water. A filter is incorporated in the intake hose that is attached to the dishwasher's main shutoff valve. [. . . ] Electrical wiring and components should not come into contact with any plumbing fixtures or hoses. Do not, under any circumstances, cut the intake hose. If the hose is cut, the dishwasher will not work, you will have a water leak and you could be injured. If the hose is too long, coil it neatly and place it behind the machine. 65 Plumbing Drain system specifications: The machine comes equipped with: ­ A 5 ft. long (1. 5 m) flexible drain hose with an internal diameter of 7/8" (22 mm).
