Taking Care of Your Machine
Important
Make sure that the machine is
unplugged and the water turned off
before undertaking any kind of
maintenance.
Please note, when moving house make
sure that the machine is not tilted too
much during transport.
General Cleaning
Inspect the filters
and spray arm
nozzles regularly and remove any food
scraps. Wipe round the rubber gasket at
the bottom of the door to remove grease
which tends to collect there.
Cleaning the Filters
It is essential to clean the filter system
regularly. It can easily get clogged with
scraps of food which will cause the
machine to work inefficiently.
There are three filters (see fig. 16 below),
one large circular fine-mesh filter (A) and
two small cone-shaped ones (B & C).
Inspect, and if necessary clean, the cone
shaped filters (C fits inside B) after each
wash cycle. Remove them both by lifting
the outer one (B) up.
Then remove the inner one (C) by
squeezing the two plastic tongues at the
bottom of the outer filter (B) (Fig. 16).
Remove any food scraps and clean
thoroughly with a stiff saucepan brush
and hot sudsy water.
The large fine mesh filter (A) is cleaned
automatically during the wash cycle by
two extensions on the bottom spray arm
(Fig. 16). These extensions direct two jets
of water down the filter which wash any
food debris into the conical filter where
they are trapped. However the filter
should be removed and thoroughly
cleaned every now and then. To remove
the filter (A), first take off the bottom
spray arm by releasing the catches (D -
Fig. 17) and lifting it up. Release the
filter by turning the base of the spray
arm (EF - Fig. 17) in an anti-clockwise
direction, then lift it out.
Clean with a stiff saucepan brush and hot
sudsy water. Replace the filters and the
spray arm making sure that all the parts
are securely in position.
Important
Never use the dishwasher unless the
filters and spray arm are firmly in the
correct position.
