HOW TO CLEAN THE SPRAYING ARMS

The spraying arms can be easily removed in order to clean the nozzles and prevent clogging. Periodically remove the
spraying arms after having unscrewed the knurled nuts, wash them carefully, fit them back in their housings and fully
tighten the knurled nuts. It is particularly important to make sure that the small circular hole at the end of the spraying
arm is perfectly clean.
9.3

HOW TO CLEAN THE FILTERS

The filtering unit comprises a circular filter with a filter cone, a microfilter and a coarse filter. To ensure that the
machine functions in an efficient way, it is extremely important to keep the filters clean. Inspect the filters often (e.g. if
glassware with paper labels is washed, the filters must be checked after each cycle) and remove any deposits that could
impair the way the appliance operates.
Coarse filter
Remove the coarse filter by pressing on the lobes and pulling upwards (fig. 19). Clean the filter and set it back in
position.
Microfilter
This is positioned under the coarse filter (fig. 20). It is advisable to check and clean it when the coarse filter is
inspected.
Use a brush and hot water to clean this filter perfectly.
Circular filter
Proceed as described below to disassemble this filter:
• hold the coarse filter by its lobes and turn it in the anti-clockwise direction (fig. 21).
