Cleaning and care

Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution. This prevents soiling
getting into the circulation system and
re-entering the wash cabinet through
the spray arms.
Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
Without filters, soiling can enter the
circulation system and cause a
blockage.
Do not run a wash program without
the lower spray arm or without the fil-
ters.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation sys-
tem.
The filters can become blocked by soil-
ing that collects over time. The level of
soiling and time it takes before the fil-
ters need cleaning will vary depending
on use.

the display after every 50 program se-
quences.

Cleaning the filters

Before removing the filter combina-
tion, remove any coarse soiling to
prevent it from entering the circulation
system.
