694570192 Genuine Lower Spray Arm for Smeg Dishwashers, Bottom Wash Arm Replacement for Smeg Dishwasher

694570192 is the genuine Smeg lower spray arm, the rotating arm under the bottom basket of a Smeg dishwasher. Water is pumped up into the arm and forced out through its jets, which spin it around and spray the dishes above. A cracked, warped or blocked arm leaves the bottom rack dirty. Smeg makes several lower arms, so match 694570192 against your old arm or your model's parts list.

Dishwasher not cleaning the bottom rack

The lower arm does much of the work in a dishwasher, cleaning plates, pots and pans on the bottom rack. It relies on water pressure through small nozzles to spin freely. If the nozzles clog with food, seeds or limescale, or the arm cracks or warps from heat, pressure leaks away and the arm turns slowly or stops. You'll see food left on plates, gritty residue, cloudy glasses or one side of the rack cleaner than the other. Spin the arm by hand. It should turn freely and sit level. Clear the nozzles with a toothpick before deciding to replace it.

Changing the lower spray arm

Turn the dishwasher off at the wall and pull out the lower basket. Depending on the model, the arm either lifts straight off its hub or is held by a screw cap or nut in the centre. Clean the filters and the hub before fitting the new arm, then spin it by hand to make sure it clears the basket and any tall items.
