17.3 Tips on appliance care
Follow the tips on appliance care to
make sure your appliance functions
properly at all times.
Action Benefit
Wipe the door
seals, the front of
the dishwasher
and the control
panel regularly
using a damp
cloth and wash-
ing-up liquid.
This ensures the
parts of the appli-
ance will remain
clean and hy-
gienic.
If the appliance
is not going to
be used for a
while, leave the
door slightly ajar.
This will prevent
unpleasant
odours.

Cleaning nozzle
Your appliance is equipped with a fil-
ter cleaning nozzle.
The cleaning nozzle is maintenance-
free, reducing the manual cleaning
required for the filter.
The maintenance interval of the filter
system greatly depends on the type
of soiling, the detergent used and the
programme selected.
Activating the cleaning nozzle
You can reduce the number of filter
cleaning processes needed to as
little as three times a year if you note
the following:
Requirement:Large remnants of
food have been removed manually
before washing.
▶ Activate the cleaning nozzle in the
basic settings →Page36.
Cleaning filters
Soiling in the dishwashing water may
block the filters.
1. After each wash check the filters
for residue.
2. Turn the coarse filter anticlockwise
and remove the filter system ⁠.
‒ Check that no foreign objects
fall into the sump.
