Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter as-
sembly must be cleaned.
The filter efficiently removes food particles
from the wash water,allowing it to be recircu-
lated 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"A"semi-circular filter and cup un-
der running water.To remove the filter
assembly,pull on the cup handle in the upward
direction. The entire filter assembly (made up
of the "A" semicircular filter and the"B" fine
filter)should be cleaned at ;least once a month.
To clean the filter and the fine filter,use a clean-
ing brush .Then,reassemble the filter parts as
shown in the figures below and reinsert the
entire aseembly in the dishwasher,positioning
in its seat and pressing downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without
the filters.Improper replacement of the filters
may reduce level of the appliance and dam-
age dishes and utensils.
Cleaning the Sprayer Arms
It may happen that food particle become en-
crusted on the sprayer arms and block the
hole. Check the sprayer arms periodically and
clean them when needed. (see "Close up view
[interior]",letters C-E ).
