What to do while you wait

You've made the call. Here's how to keep the kitchen moving and help us fix it faster:

• Stop using it if it's not right. A machine that isn't hitting its wash and rinse temperatures isn't cleaning properly. Don't keep running it through service.
• Switch it off if it's leaking or tripping. If water is on the floor or the power keeps tripping, switch the machine off at the wall and turn off the water supply, if it's safe to do so. Keep staff clear of wet floors.
• Leave the panels on. There are live electrical parts inside. Leave that to our technicians.
• Get the details ready. Find the make, model and serial number on the rating plate. Take a photo of any error code on the display.
• Make it easy to get to. Clear racks and stock away from the machine and let us know where to park and which door to use.
• Tell us your trading hours. If you're in the middle of service, say so. We'll work around you as best we can.

For hand-washing in the meantime, follow your food control plan. The more you tell us up front, the more likely we can bring the right parts and fix it in one visit.

Stop the next breakdown

Most dishwasher breakdowns build up over time. Planned maintenance catches worn seals, scale and tired parts before they stop service. Every 4 months or six-monthly is ideal. If your kitchen trades 7 days or runs early to late, quarterly visits may suit better. We also offer asset management so you can keep track of every machine and its service history. See planned maintenance.
