CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
Regularly clean the filter assembly so that the filters do not clog and that
the waste water flows away correctly.
Using dishwasher with clogged filters or foreign objects inside filtra-
tion system or sprayarms may cause unit malfunction resulting in lose
of performance, noisy work or higher resources usage.
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues
from the washing water and then recirculate the water.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters or if the filter is
loose.
At least once per month or after each 30 cycles, check the filter assem-
bly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using
a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical filter A in an anti-clockwise direction and pull
it out (Fig 1).
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side
flaps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate filter C (Fig 3).
4. In case you find foreign objects (such as broken glass, porcelain,
bones, fruit seeds etc.) please remove them carefully.
5. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER REMOVE
the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).

After cleaning the filters, re-place the filter assembly and fix it in posi-
tion correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation
of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended peri-
od of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impuri-
ties before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is
not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dish-
washer.

CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
On occasions, food residue may become encrusted onto the spray arms
and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recommend-
ed that you check the arms from time to time and clean them with
a small non-metallic brush.
To remove the upper spray arm, turn the plastic locking ring in a clock-
wise direction. The upper spray arm should be replaced so that the side
with the greater number of holes is facing upwards.
The lower spray arm may be removed by pulling it upwards.
WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently
preventing scale buildup on heater, contributing also to better cleaning
efficiency.
This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required
to refill salt container when empty.
Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level setting
- regeneration takes place once per 5 Eco cycles with water hardness
level set to 3.
Regeneration process starts in final rinse and finishes in drying phase,
before cycle ends.
• Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5L of water;
• Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
• Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.
