Dirty filters and a clogged
spray arm decrease the
washing results. Regularly
check and if necessary,
clean the filters.
8.2 Removing and cleaning the
filters
1. Turn the fine filter (B)
counterclockwise and remove the
filter assembly.
2. Remove the coarse filter (A) by
pulling it out from the fine filter (B).
3. Wash the filters with water and a
brush.
4. Put the coarse filter (A) into the fine
filter (B).
5. Put the filter assembly into the tub
and turn the fine filter (B) clockwise
until it locks.
8.3 Cleaning the spray arm
Do not remove the spray arm. If the
openings in the spray arm are clogged,
remove remaining parts of soil with a thin
pointed object.
8.4 External cleaning
• Clean the appliance with a moist soft
cloth.
• Only use neutral detergents.
• Do not use abrasive products,
abrasive cleaning pads or solvents.
8.5 Internal cleaning
• Carefully clean the appliance,
including the rubber gasket of the
door, with a soft damp cloth.
• To maintain the performance of your
appliance, use a cleaning product
designed specifically for dishwashers
at least once a month. Carefully follow
the instructions on the packaging of
the product.
• Do not use abrasive products,
abrasive cleaning pads, sharp tools,
strong chemicals, scourer or solvents.
• Using short-duration programmes
regularly can cause grease and
limescale buildup inside the
appliance. Run long-duration
programmes at least twice a month to
prevent the buildup.
8.6 Removal of foreign objects
Check the filters and the sump after each
use of the dishwasher. Foreign objects
(e.g. pieces of glass, plastic, bones or
toothpicks, etc) decrease the cleaning
performance and can cause damage to
the drain pump.
CAUTION!
If unable to remove the
foreign objects, contact an
Authorised Service Centre.
1. Disassemble the filters system as
instructed in this chapter.
2. Remove any foreign objects
manually.
