Cleaning the filters
The filters must be checked and
cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters
will degrade the washing result.
Before cleaning the filters ensure
that the machine is switched off.
1. Open the door, remove the lower
basket.
2. The dishwasher filter system
comprises a coarse filter (A), a
microfilter (B) and a flat filter.
Unlock the filter system using the
handle on the microfilter.
3. Turn the handle about
1
/
4
a turn
anticlockwise and remove the filter
system.
Care and cleaning
4. Take hold of the coarse filter (A) by
the handle with the hole and
remove from the microfilter (B).
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under
running water.
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
microfilter (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.
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.
