Internal cleaning

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent
and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a
damp cloth.

We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher
Cleaner 
every 3 months or run a 65°C wash without
dishes using detergent. Regular use of Finish
Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts,
eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent
the build-up of limescale.

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

(every week)

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.
