Turning on the Dexp dishwasher

Turning on the Dexp dishwasher and starting the wash cycle is actually quite simple. Simply plug the power cord into a power outlet and press the "Power" button. Then select the desired program and press the "Start/Stop" button. It all seems simple and straightforward. But let's not limit ourselves to such a superficial answer. Before turning on the machine and starting the wash cycle, a number of preliminary steps must be completed. We'll discuss these in this article.

Why run the dishwasher without dishes?

Before loading the dishwasher with dishes and starting full operation, the manufacturer recommends running it in test mode, that is, performing a dry run. Not all users consider this advisable, but they are mistaken. To support our opinion, we will provide several arguments that clearly demonstrate the necessity of a dry run.

During the first flush of the equipment with water, any debris that may accidentally get into it during installation, as well as any remaining lubricant, is removed.
A test run allows you to ensure that water fills quickly, heats up well, drains completely after the cycle, and checks the drying process. This allows you to determine whether the machine is functioning properly.
This also allows you to ensure that the equipment is installed correctly. There are instances where an electrical wire was pinched by furniture during installation, preventing the unit from even starting.

Please note! Some people believe that they shouldn't add detergent to the dishwasher during a test run. This is a common mistake. Remember, using salt and detergent is essential!

To find the salt compartment, pull out the lower basket, which is located at the bottom of the unit. Remove the lid and pour salt into the compartment. Then add approximately two-thirds of the 1.5-kilogram packet, but be careful not to overfill the reservoir. When you add salt, excess liquid will drain into the tank; this is normal.

Next, you need to decide which dishwashing detergent you'll be using. There are special compartments for each of these detergents on the inside of the door. Then, turn on the Dexp dishwasher and set the appropriate program.

In addition, before starting the wash, you need to select the water hardness parameters, as this characteristic affects the amount of salt consumed. To determine water hardness, you can use test strips (this is the easiest option), or you can check with your local water utility. Simply select the desired mode and press "Start."

The test run is complete, everything went smoothly, and the dishwasher is working properly. However, don't rush to load it with dishes and start the wash. Give it a little time to cool down.

Important! Starting the equipment too frequently may overload the heating element and pump.

After some time, when the dishwasher has cooled down, place the dishes in it. It must be pre-cleaned from food residues. Add detergent to the appropriate compartment. Rinse aid and salt are already in the compartments; in most cases, they last for a couple of months. For best results, ensure dishes and cutlery are properly arranged in the baskets, with no obstructions to water flow to any area of the dishwasher or to the movement of the spray arm. Once you've ensured everything is in place, select a program and press the "Start" button. We launch the Dexp machine

When you first start the machine, loading the dishes may take a little longer. But don't worry; it'll soon become automatic. And you'll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of free time you'll gain after purchasing this "helper."
