Cleaning and care
67
Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
the suds solution, preventing it access‐
ing the circulation system and re-enter‐
ing the cabinet through the spray arms.
This dishwasher must not be
used without all the filters in place.
Collection of coarse soil may cause the
filters to clog. The level of soiling and
time it takes before the filters need
cleaning will vary depending on use.
The message
Check filters
will appear in
the display after every 50 programme
cycles (factory default setting).
You can set the interval for this mes‐
sage to appear to between 30 and 60
programme cycles (see "Settings menu
- Check filters").
Check the filter combination.
Clean it if necessary.
Then confirm the message with
OK
.
The message will disappear.
The display will change to show the
programme selection menu.
Cleaning the filters
Switch the dishwasher off.
Turn the handle anti-clockwise to re‐
lease the filter combination
.
Lift the filter combination out of the
dishwasher
. Remove any coarse
particles and rinse the filter well un‐
der running water.
Use a nylon brush if necessary.
During cleaning ensure that
course soil doesn't get into the cir‐
culation system and cause a block‐
age.
