Checking the filters in the
wash cabinet
The filter combination in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse soiling
from the suds solution. This prevents
soiling getting into the circulation
system and re-entering the wash
cabinet through the spray arms.
 Damage due to soiling entering
the circulation system.
Without filters, soiling can enter the
circulation system and cause a
blockage.
Do not run a wash programme
without the lower spray arm or
without the filters.
When cleaning the filters and spray
arms, make sure that coarse soiling
cannot get into the circulation
system.
The filters can become blocked by
soiling that collects over time. The level
of soiling and time it takes before the
filters need cleaning will vary depending
on use.
The messageCheck filters will appear in
the display after every 50 programme
sequences.
 Check the filter combination.
 Clean the filter combination if
necessary.
 Then confirm the message with OK.
Cleaning the filters

“Cleaning and care” chapter,
“Cleaning the spray arms” section).
 Before removing the filter
combination, remove any coarse
soiling to prevent it from entering the
circulation system.
 Remove the filter combination.
