PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS AND CLEANING THE FILTER UNIT
The filtering system is composed of :
- a central filter cup which traps the largest food particles.
- a flat filter which continuously filters the washing water.
- the micro filter, situated under the flat filter, which traps the
smallest food particles ensuring a perfect rinse.
For best results, the filter unit should be checked and cleaned after each wash.
To remove the filter unit, simply grip the handle and lift the whole unit out.
The central cup is just resting on top for easy cleaning.
The dishwasher is fitted with a self cleaning micro filter, which only requires checking about
once every 15 days.
However, it is advisable to check after every wash, that the central cup and the flat filter
are not clogged.
NB : After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled, one inside
the other, and that the flat filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher.
A poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the
appliance.
Important : Never use the dishwasher without filter.
LOADING DISHES
The basket has been carefully designed to make loading easy.
For good wash performance, remove any debris from the dishes (bones, tooth picks, the
remains of meat and vegetables) to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing
arm nozzle and, as a result, reducing washing efficiency.
Warning ! to avoid any injury from cutlery with blades or sharp points, they can be placed
with the handles upwards.
