1.3 Water Supply Methods

Your ChuMaste dishwasher offers two convenient water supply methods:

1. Built-in Water Tank: For portable use without direct plumbing, fill the integrated 5L water tank from the top opening using the provided water pitcher. The dishwasher will alert you when the tank is full.
2. Direct Faucet Connection: Connect the inlet hose to a kitchen faucet for continuous water supply. Ensure the connection is secure.

1.4 Drainage

Connect the water outlet (drain) pipe to a sink to ensure proper drainage of used water. Make sure the drain hose is properly installed and positioned to prevent leaks.

1.5 Initial Use

Before first use, it is recommended to run a cleaning cycle with vinegar to ensure the dishwasher is thoroughly clean and free of any manufacturing residues. This helps in maintaining optimal performance.

2. Operating Instructions

2.1 Loading the Dishwasher

Remove large food scraps before placing tableware into the dishwasher. The spacious interior can accommodate 1 to 3 servings of tableware, including plates up to 10.5 inches. Utilize the adjustable shelf for high glasses and the knife and fork box for utensils.

2.3 Selecting a Wash Program

The dishwasher offers five main programs and additional functions to meet various needs. The control panel features touch buttons for easy selection.

3. Maintenance

3.1 Cleaning the Filter

Regularly remove and clean the filter located at the bottom of the dishwasher to prevent clogs and ensure efficient cleaning. This is typically done by pulling out the filter and rinsing it.

3.2 Deep Cleaning

To maintain optimal performance and prevent odors, run a self-clean cycle or a normal wash cycle with vinegar periodically (e.g., once a month). This helps to remove any buildup within the machine.

3.3 Emptying Water Tank

When the water tank is not used for a long time, it is recommended to empty the water tank by touching and holding both the S/P and Power buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to drain out the water.

4. Troubleshooting

• Residual Water: This dishwasher undergoes a quality test for the water inlet before it leaves the factory, so a little residual water is normal.
• Water Supply Issues: Unplug the plug on the water inlet at the back before connecting the water inlet hose.
• Steam Burns: Do not block the air vent on the right side of the dishwasher. Be careful of high temperature steam burns.
• Opening Door During Wash: Do not open the glass door while washing, as the hot water may scald you. If you need to open the door, touch the S/P button first, and then slowly open the door.
• Dry Mode Interruption: The Dry mode cannot be paused or canceled during operation. If you want to exit the mode, touch and hold the Power button for 3 seconds to turn off the dishwasher.
• Excessive Bubbles: Ensure you use professional detergents, dishwashing powders, or dishwashing tablets. Non-professional detergents can cause a large amount of bubbles that may clog the dishwasher.
