Cleaning and Care

Triple filter system

The triple filter system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse dirt from the suds solution, preventing it from reaching the circulation system and re-entering the cabinet through the spray arms.

The dishwasher must not be used without all the filters in place.

Collection of coarse dirt may cause the filters to clog. The level of soiling and time it takes before the filters need cleaning will vary depending on your household use.

The message Check filters will appear in the display after every 50 program cycles (factory default setting).

The filter check frequency can be set from 30 and 60 program cycles (see "Settings, filter check").

Check the triple filter system.

Clean the triple filter, if necessary.

Confirm the message with the center button.

The display changes to the Main menu.

Cleaning the triple filter

Turn the dishwasher off.

Turn the handle counter-clockwise to release the triple filter system .

Remove the triple filter system from the machine . Clean any solid particles and rinse the filter well under running water. Scrub with a nylon brush if necessary.

Make sure that when cleaning the filters, no coarse dirt falls into the circulation system, causing a blockage.
