time to time.

panel. Top up with rinse-aid,if required.

Filters

The filters “ 8”, 9” prevent larger particles of food in the

water from reaching the pump.These particles may occa-

ters for particles of food and, if required, clean.

After undoing the coarse micro-filter “ 8 ” , the filter unit

“ 10” can be removed. Remove any particles of food and

rinse the filters under running water.

Insert the filter unit “ 9 ” and tighten the coarse micro-

filter.
