Cleaning and care

Cleaning the water inlet filter
A filter is incorporated in the screw
thread to protect the water inlet valve. If
the filter is soiled, insufficient water
flows into the wash cabinet.
Risk of electric shock from mains
voltage.
The plastic housing of the water con-
nection contains an electrical valve.
The housing must not be dipped in
water.
Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains.
To do this, turn off the dishwasher,
switch off at the socket and remove
the plug.
Close the stopcock.
Unscrew the water inlet valve.
Remove the seal from the screw
thread.
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter slat and remove the filter.
Rinse the filter under running water.
Reassemble in reverse order.
Screw the screw thread securely
back onto the stopcock. Slowly open
the stopcock. If water drips out,
tighten the screw thread.
Never
forget to put the filter back in
place after cleaning.
