It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the
dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the
socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of
the appliance slightly open. This will help the door
seals to ast longer and prevent odours from forming
within the appliance.
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the
vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be
positioned on its back.
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the

arms turn freely. Otherwise, check that they have been
installed correctly.
