CLEANING THE FILTERS
Filtering system
For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and filtering system within easy reach
inside the tub. There are three components of the filtering system: the main filter, the coarse filter,
and the fine filter.
1. Main
fi lter
: Food and soil particles trapped by this fi lter are
pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down
the drain.
2. Coarse
fi lter
: Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that
could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse fi lter. To remove an
item caught in this fi lter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this fi lter
and lift it out.
3. Fine
fi lter
: This fi lter holds soil and food residue in the sump area
and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle.

ATTENTION
: Do not put the fine filter upside down.
Filter assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently
removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle.
For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after
each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the
filter assembly, turn it in anti-clockwise direction and lift the filter assembly up. The entire filter
assembly should be cleaned regularly.
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reinsert the entire
assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat, pressing downward, turning it clockwise
direction.
Open
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may
reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
WARNING
: Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. When cleaning the filters,
do not damage them. Otherwise the filters may not perform as intended and poor wash
results or damage to the internal parts may be encountered.
