Filter system
The three-part filter system pre-
vents large quantities of food
residues or foreign bodies from
entering the rinsing system.
1 Main filter: collected food and dirt particles are
pulverized by a special jet on the spray arm and
rinsed out via the water drain.
2 Coarse filter: filters larger objects such as pieces
of bone or broken glass that could block the drain.
3 Micro filter: filters dirt and food residues in the
sump area and prevents these contaminants from
settling back onto the dishes during the rinse cycle.
Cleaning the filter system
CAUTION:
• The dishwasher must never be operated without
filters.
• Improper insertion of the filters may affect the
performance and damage the appliance.
• Do not tap out the filters for cleaning to avoid
possible deformation of the filters.
NOTE:
After each rinse, check the filter for residues.
• Turn the coarse filter counterclockwise and re-
move the entire filter system upwards.
• Detach the coarse and the micro filters from the
main filter.
• Remove food residues and clean the filters under
running water. Use a soft cleaning brush if neces-
sary.
• Reassemble the filter system properly in reverse
order and in its intended position. Fix the entire
system by turning the filter unit clockwise.
Cleaning the spray arms
Lime and impurities from the rinsing water can block
nozzles and bearings of the spray arms. Check the
outlet nozzles of the spray arms regularly for block-
ages.
• Unscrew the fastening nut of
and pull the arm downwards.
Remove the lower arm upwards.
•
Clean the spray arms under running water; if
•
necessary, use a soft cleaning brush for the noz-
zles.
Replace the spray arms until they audibly click
•
into place. Tighten the nut of the upper spray
arm.
Care of the dishwasher
CAUTION:
Do not use spray cleaners to clean the door panel,
as they may damage the door latch and electrical
components.
• Carefully clean the exterior surfaces of the appli-
ance and the rubber door seal with a soft, damp
cloth. Only use mild cleaning agents.
• To remove stains inside the appliance, use a cloth
moistened with a little vinegar or a special clean-
ing agent for dishwashers. If necessary, add de-
tergent and start the appliance without dishes in
the program with the highest temperature.
• Thoroughly dry the outer surfaces of the appli-
ance before putting it back into operation.
