Maintenance and cleaning

Internal and external cleaning

Do not under any circumstances use furniture care products or aggressive cleaners.

If necessary, clean the controls only with a soft cloth and pure warm water.

The spray arms do not need cleaning.

Occasionally check the internal containers, door seal and water inlet for soiling, clean if necessary.

We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.

Cleaning the filters

The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result.

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.

2. The dishwasher filter system comprises
a coarse/fine filter, microfilter and a
flat filter.
Unlock the filter system using a handle
on the microfilter, and remove.	MA15

3.Turn the handle about 1/4 a turn

anticlockwise and remove.

4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (1/2) by the handle with the hole and remove from the microfilter (3).

5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
