Cleaning and care
71
To clean the inside of the filter, the flap
must be opened:
Press catches
together in the di‐
rection of the arrows as shown, and
open the filter
.
Rinse all the filters under running wa‐
ter.
Then close the flap so that the catch
engages.
Replace the filter system so that it
lies flat in the base of the wash cabi‐
net.
Then turn the handle clockwise until
both arrows point towards each oth‐
er. This will lock the filter system in
place.
Take care when you are fitting
the filter system that it is secured in
position correctly.
Otherwise coarse soil could get into
the circulation system and cause a
blockage.
