How to use Somat dishwasher cleaner

It's generally accepted that a dishwasher should be thoroughly cleaned at least once a quarter to remove all limescale and other dirt that accumulates during this period. However, many home appliance users admit to never cleaning their dishwasher at all until it stops working properly due to clogs. Maintaining your dishwasher is very easy with Somat dishwasher cleaner, which quickly removes any dirt. We'll tell you how and when to use it right now.

How to get the best results from Somat?

To keep your dishwasher clean, you should regularly use a cleaning product that can remove not only grease deposits and limescale from hard-to-reach places, but also eliminate unpleasant odors from the dishwasher. Somat cleaning products have a good reputation, are inexpensive and easy to use. Use our instructions if you have not worked with similar household chemicals before.

• Turn on the household appliance and open the washing chamber door.
• Make sure there are no dishes in the dishwasher baskets.
• Remove the foil from the cap of a new bottle of Somat Intensive Cleaner.

It is very important not to unscrew the bottle cap itself, leaving it in place.

• Hang the bottle upside down on the edge of the tray inside the wash chamber so that it does not block the upper spray arm.
• Close the door and run the cycle without any dishes.

These steps should be performed at least once every three months to keep your appliance in perfect condition. Following these instructions will help you remove grease and limescale from the machine's walls, spray arms, filter, pump, and drain pipe.

Of course, these instructions apply not only to the Somat cleaner but to most other cleaning products as well. You can use other formats of cleaner, such as capsules or tablets, in the same way, except you won't need to throw away the plastic bottle after washing, as the packaging will simply dissolve along with the capsule or tablet.

After cleaning the inside of the dishwasher, you can take some time to clean the exterior, which is visible 24/7. No special cleaning products are needed to remove dirt from the door, body, dashboard, and other components—a damp cloth and hot, soapy water will do.

How often do you need to clean the PMM?

As mentioned earlier, service center experts recommend cleaning your dishwasher at least once every three months to prevent clogging and reduce dishwashing performance. However, it's important to understand that three months is only a general recommendation and may not apply to your specific situation. The frequency of washing should directly depend on how often you use your household appliances. If you don’t know when to clean your appliances, pay attention to the following:

• unpleasant smell coming from the dishwasher;
• accumulation of food residue in the machine filter;
• after the working cycle, the dishes are not crystal clear, but contain food or fat residue;
• corrosion has formed inside the device;
• food particles remained in the sprinklers;
• accumulation of fat and scale in hard-to-reach places of the unit, for example, in pipes;
• The machine is clogged with dirt, food debris or other debris.

Any of these points can have a detrimental effect on the performance of the "home assistant", but it is the last one that can interfere the most. Most of the symptoms listed can be easily prevented by cleaning dirty dishes from food residues beforehand. This action will not only prevent clogs, but will also help save water, since the machine will not need to waste resources rinsing the dishes.

Now you understand the importance of cleaning both dishes before loading them into the dishwasher and the machine itself at least once every three months. These steps not only ensure perfectly clean dishes after washing but also ensure your appliance continues to serve you well for many years to come. All you need to do is purchase a dishwasher cleaner once a quarter and spend five minutes running the dishwasher's cleaning cycle.
