5. Principios de funcionamento

The water inlet valve is an electrically operated solenoid valve that controls the flow of water into the dishwasher. When the dishwasher's control board signals for water, the solenoid is energized, opening the valve and allowing water to enter the tub. Once the required water level is reached, the control board de-energizes the solenoid, closing the valve and stopping the water flow. This precise control is essential for the dishwasher's proper functioning during various cycles.

6. Mantemento

The water inlet valve is generally a sealed unit and does not require routine maintenance. However, to ensure its longevity and proper function:

• Periodically inspect the water supply hose and connections for any signs of leaks or wear.
• Ensure the water supply to your home is free of excessive sediment, which can clog the valve's internal filter screen (if present). Some valves have a small screen at the inlet that can be cleaned if water flow issues arise.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals near the valve or its connections.
