CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY

Regularly clean the filter assembly so that the filters do not clog and 

that the waste water flows away correctly.
Using dishwasher with clogged filters or foreign objects inside filtra-

tion system or sprayarms may cause unit malfunction resulting in lose 

of performance, noisy work or higher resources usage.

The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues 

from the washing water and then recirculate the water.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters or if the filter is 

loose.

At least once per month or after each 30 cycles, check the filter assem-

bly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a 

non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
1.  Turn the cylindrical filter 

A

 in an anti-clockwise direction and pull 

it out 

(Fig 1)

.

2.  Remove the cup filter 

B

 by exerting a slight pressure on the side 

flaps 

(Fig 2)

.

3.  Slide out the stainless-steel plate filter 

(Fig 3)

.

4.  In case you find foreign objects (such as broken glass, porcelain,  

bones, fruit seeds etc.) 

please remove them carefully

.

5.  Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. 

NEVER REMOVE

 

the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) 

(Fig 4)

.

After cleaning the filters, re-place the filter assembly and fix it in 

position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient 

operation of the dishwasher.

CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE

If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended 

period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of 

impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this 

precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and da-

mage the dishwasher. 

CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS

On occasions, food residue may become encrusted onto the spray 

arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recom-

mended that you check the arms from time to time and clean them 

with a small non-metallic brush.

To remove the upper spray arm, turn the plastic locking ring in an  

anti-clockwise direction. The upper spray arm should be replaced so 

that the side with the greater number of holes is facing upwards.

The lower spray arm may be removed by pulling it upwards.

WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM 

Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently 
preventing scale buildup on heater, contributing also to better cleaning 
efficiency. 

This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required to 
refill salt container when empty. 

Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level setting 
- regeneration takes place once per 

5

 Eco cycles with water hardness 

level set to 

3

Regeneration process starts in final rinse and finishes in drying phase, 
before cycle ends. 
•  Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5L of water; 
•  Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle; 
•  Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.
