Cleaning and special maintenance
The filter assembly
If you want consistent good
results
from
your
dishwasher, you need to
clean the filter assembly.
The food particles are
removed from the wash
water, allowing it to be re-
circulated during the cycle,
filtered perfectly. For this
reason, it is a good idea to
remove the larger food
particles trapped inside the
semi-circular filter A and
cup "C" after each wash; to remove the filter assembly, pull
the cup handle upwards. All you need to do is rinse them
under running water.
The entire filter assembly should be cleaned thoroughly once
a month: semi-circular filter A + cup C + cylindrical filter B +
micro filter D.
To remove filter "B", turn it anti-clockwise. Use a small non-
metallic brush for cleaning.
Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and
Is there a problem?
Your dishwasher may not work or not function properly.
Before calling for assistance, let's have a look at what can be
done: you may have forgotten to press a button or for some
reason or another you haven't carried out a procedure
necessary for the appliance to operate correctly.
The dishwasher won't start
Have you checked:
whether the tap has been turned on and is well connected
to the hose or whether there is no water throughout your
home or whether the pressure of the water supply is
sufficient, whether the hose is bent or the filter on the water
supply hose is blocked, whether the door is open?
The dishes are not clean
Have you checked:
whether the right amount of detergent is in the dispenser,
the wash cycle selected is suitable for the dishes loaded, or
whether the filter and the microfilter are clean and whether
the sprayer arms can turn freely?
The dishwasher won't drain
Have you checked:
Is the drain hose bent?
Limescale deposits or a white film form on the dishes.
Have you checked:
whether the lid on the salt container is closed properly or
whether the amount of rinse aid has been adjusted correctly?
Error messages.
The dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is able to
detect any operating anomalies. These anomalies are reported by
one or two wash cycle indicator lights "G" flashing rapidly. Take a
note of which lights are flashing, turn the appliance off and call for
technical assistance.

reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it
into its housing and press downwards.
The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the
wash and even damage your dishwasher.
Cleaning the sprayer arms
Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer arms
and block the holes where water comes out; check them on
a regular basis and clean them (see the Close-up View (inside)
letters F-I).
Tap off alarm
If you have forgotten to turn the water tap on, your appliance will
remind you of this by sounding a few short beeps for a few minutes.
Turn the tap on and your appliance will start up again after a few
minutes. Were you to be absent when these beeps are sounded,
the appliance will be blocked automatically and indicator lights 2
and 3 (wash and rinses) will flash rapidly. Turn the appliance off at
the ON-OFF button, turn on the water tap and wait approximately
20 seconds before turning the appliance back on, re-select a wash
cycle as indicated in the "Selecting the wash cycle" paragraph and
the appliance will start up again.
Clogged filter alarm
If the appliance is blocked and indicator lights 1 (pre-wash) and 3
(rinses) flash rapidly , this means the filter is clogged by large particles
of food residue. Turn the appliance off, clean the filter thoroughly,
reposition it in its seat and then turn the appliance on again. The
selected wash cycle will start up again.
If any other indicator lights apart from the above-mentioned ones
flash rapidly, turn the appliance off and call for technical assistance.
If, despite all these checks, your dishwasher still won't
work and the trouble you are having persists, call your
nearest authorised service centre, mentioning the
following information:
- the type of malfunction
- the model type no. (Mod. ....) and the serial number (S/N....)
indicated on the rating plate located on the inner door, to one side.
Never call upon the services of unauthorised
technicians and always refuse spare parts that are
not originals.
