Cleaning the water intake filter
The water intake filter "A" on the outlet of the tap requires regular cleaning; the recommended interval is once every
2 – 6 months, depending on the intake water quality. Turn off the water supply tap, unscrew the end of the water
intake hose, remove the filter "A" and clean it gently under running water. Fit the filter "A" back in place and
reconnect the water intake hose with care.
Keep an eye on the free end of the hose to prevent water spills.
Cleaning the spray arms
The spray arms can easily be removed by unscrewing the knurled nut that fixes them to the pivot pin, so that the
nozzles can be periodically cleaned to prevent fouling.
Wash the spray arms under running water and then fit them back in place. Make sure that they are free to turn
unimpeded.
Recommended spray arm cleaning interval: once a week.
For trolleys with fixed spray nozzles: refer to the trolley manual for cleaning instructions.

Cleaning the filter unit
The filter unit consists of a coarse filter, a conical fine filter, and a larger external filter. To ensure that the appliance
operates effectively, it is extremely important to keep the filters clean. They should therefore be inspected frequently
(e.g. if glassware with paper labels is washed, inspect after each cycle - in normal conditions the filters should be
cleaned once a week) to remove deposits which may adversely affect operation.
WARNING
Filters may contain biologically contaminated material and must be handled with due care, using
protective equipment (e.g. gloves, protective glasses, lab coat).
The potentially contaminated material in the filters and any other components of the device must
be handled and disposed of appropriately.
Recommendations for correct maintenance

The filters should be cleaned under running water using a stiff brush.

It is essential to clean the filters carefully in accordance with the instructions given above: the appliance washer
will be unable to operate correctly if the filters are fouled.

Fit the filters back in place with care before starting a washing program.
