6. Remove the flat filter from the base of the
washing compartment and clean both
faces thoroughly.
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the
washing compartment and ensure that it
fits perfectly.
8. Place the coarse filter ( A ) in the micro-
filter ( B ) and press together.
9. Put the filter combination in place and
lock by turning the handle clockwise to the
stop. During this process ensure that the
flat filter does not protrude above the base
of the washing compartment.
WARNING!
NEVER use the dishwasher without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters
will produce poor washing results and may result in damage to the appliance.
Cleaning the spray arms
NEVER try to remove the spray arms.
If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the spray arms, remove them with a cocktail
stick.
External cleaning
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If
necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent
(acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
Internal cleaning
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned
regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend every 3 months to run the wash programme for heavy soiled dishes using
detergent but without dishes.
Prolonged periods of non-operation
If you are not using the machine for any prolonged period of time you are advised to:
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells.
3. Leave the inside of the machine clean.
Frost precautions
Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature is below 0°C. If this is
unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe
and empty it.
