Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soiling
from the suds solution. This prevents
soiling getting into the circulation sys-
tem 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 programme
without the lower spray arm or
without the filters.
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 the time it takes before the
filters need cleaning will vary depending
on use.
The message

will appear in
the display after every 50 programme
cycles.
Check the filter combination.
Clean it, if necessary.
Then confirm the message with
OK
.
Cleaning the filters

“Cleaning and care” chapter, “Clean-
ing the spray arms” section).
Before removing the filter combina-
tion, remove any coarse soiling to
prevent it from entering the circulation
system.
Remove the filter combination.
