Wipe the dishwasher door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove any residues.

Filters

You should clean the filters at least once a month.

1.Remove the lower basket.

2.Turn the microfilter anticlockwise and then lift it out as in figure 9.

3.Remove the coarse filter from the microfilter (figure 10).

4.Remove the base filter from the dishwasher compartment (figure 11).

You should clean and rinse the filters thoroughly before replacing all the sections in reverse order to that above. The microfilter should lock into place once it is secure as shown in figure 12.
