Wash the sprayers in warm
water with mild detergent
and use a soft brush to
clean the holes. Reattach
the sprayers after you dry
them completely.
Filtration system
The lters prevent particles
of food or other objects from entering the
drain pump. These residues can clog up the
lters occasionally.
The ltration system is comprised of three
components: the main lter, the coarse lter
and the ne lter.
1 Main Filter
Food particles and dirt picked up by this
lter are pulverized by a tube passage in the
lower arm and disposed in the drain.
2 Coarse Filter
The larger debris, such as pieces of bone or
glass, that could block the drain are trapped
in the coarse lter. See the instructions of
how to remove the lters on the next page.
3 Fine Filter
This lter retains the waste food and dirt in
the area of the collector and prevents them
from coming back and be re-depositing on
the dishes during the cycle.
Take care not to place the ne lter in
inverted position.
To avoid electric shock, remove the plug
from the outlet before performing any
cleaning or maintenance. The cleaning
should be done with the appliance cold.
Never clean your Dishwasher with
cleaning agents such as alcohol,
kerosene, gasoline, bleach, thinner,
solvents, Varsol,
acids, vinegars,
abrasives, or other
chemicals not
recommended in
this manual.

Cleaning the spray arms

avoid chemical residues blocking the holes
of the spray arms and supports.
To remove the upper sprayers, turn the
nut counterclockwise without rotating the
sprayer. To remove the bottom one, simply
pull it up.
