Internal cleaning
Ensure that the seals around the door, the
detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned
regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend you carry out a maintenance wash
every three months, by running a 65°C programme
without dishes using detergent.
Cleaning the central filters
(after each wash)
Inspect the central filters (B) and (C) and remove
any scraps of food with a brush, under running
water.
Filters (B) and (C) are both removed by lifting up
the outer one (B) (pulling the central funnel
upwards); the smaller filter (C) can be removed by
pressing the two tongues (D).
Once cleaned, refit the filters by pressing them
down until they click into place.
Cleaning the large filter
(Once a month)
Clean the large filter (A) on both sides under
running water, using a brush.
To take it out, remove the spray arm by pressing
the two tongues (E), turn the ring (F) anticlockwise
and then slide the whole part out. Refit the filter
following the above instructions in reverse order.
The dishwasher must not be used without
filters.
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the
filters will produce poor washing results.
Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure
correct operation of the machine.
