Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must
be cleaned .
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash
water, allowing it
to be recirculated
during the cycle.
For this reason, it
is a good idea to
remove the
larger food
particles trapped
in the filter after
each wash cycle
by rinsing the
"A" semi-circular filter and cup under running water. To
remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the
upward direction. The entire filter assembly (made up of
the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine filter) should be
cleaned at least once a month.
To clean the filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush.
Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures
below and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher,
positioning in its seat and
pressing downward.
The dishwasher must
never be used without the
filters. Improper
replacement of the filters
may reduce the perfor-
mance level of the
appliance and damage
dishes and utensils.
Cleaning the Sprayer
Arms
It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the
sprayer arms and block the holes (see "Close up view
(interior)", letters F-I). Check the sprayer arms periodically
and clean them when needed.
Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter (see figure 2 under
"Installation") located on the outlet of the water supply tap.
After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water
supply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under
running water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten
the water supply hose back into position.
Troubleshooting
It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does
not function properly. Before calling for assistance, let us
see what can be done first.

Have you checked whether:
- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;
- the power is on in the house;
- the door is closed properly;

pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;

inside the appliance?
Are the filter and microfilter clean?

Lime Deposits or a White Film Form on the Dishes
Have you checked whether:

Error messages
The dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is
able to detect any operating anomalies. These anomalies
are signalled by some messages flashing on the counter. When
H2O is flashing, you should cancel the wash cycle as described
in the paragraph entitled “Cancelling or modifying a wash
cycle in progress”, then check whether there is any water in
the mains supply and that the water tap has been turned on.
Restart the appliance following the instructions provided and
if the message persists, then call for Technical Assistance. In
all other cases, remember the message which is flashing on
the counter, turn the appliance off and call for technical
assistance, stating which message was flashing.
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not
function and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest
authorised service centre and provide them with the
following information:
- the nature of the problem;
- the model type number (Mod. ...) and the serial number
(S/N ....), which are indicated on the plate located on the
side of the inner part of the door.
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to
allow parts to be installed that are not original spare
parts.
