CLEANING THE DISHWASHER
Any marks on the inside of the appliance may
be removed using a cloth dampened with water
and a little vinegar.
The external surfaces of the machine and the control
panel can be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth
which has been dampened with water. Do not use
solvents or abrasive products.
PREVENTING UNPLEASANT ODOURS
Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order to avoid moisture
from forming and being trapped inside the machine.
Clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers regularly
using a damp sponge. This will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals,
which is the main cause behind the formation of unpleasant odours.
CHEKING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE
Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks. If damaged,
replace it by a new hose available through our After-Sales Service
or your specialist dealer. Depending on the hose type:
If the inlet hose has a transparent coating, periodically check
if the colour intensies locally. If yes, the hose may have a leak
and should be replaced.
For water stop hoses: check the small safety valve inspection
window (see arrow). If it is red, the water stop function was triggered,
and the hose must be replaced by a new one.
For unscrewing this hose, press the release button while unscrewing
the hose.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period
of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities
before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution
is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage
the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
Regularly clean the lter assembly so that the lters do not clog
and that the waste water ows away correctly.
Using dishwasher with clogged lters or foreign objects inside ltration
system or sprayarms may cause unit malfunction resulting in lose
of performance, noisy work or higher resources usage.
The lter assembly consists of three lters which remove food residues
from the washing water and then recirculate the water.
The dishwasher must not be used without lters or if the lter is
loose.
ATTENTION: Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and when performing maintenance work. Do not use ammable liquids to clean
the machine.
At least once per month or after each 30 cycles, check the lter assembly
and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-
metallic brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical lter A in an anti-clockwise direction and pull
it out (Fig 1).
2. Remove the cup lter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side
aps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate lter C (Fig 3).
4. In case you nd foreign objects (such as broken glass, porcelain,
bones, fruit seeds etc.) please remove them carefully.
5. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER REMOVE
the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).
After cleaning the lters, re-place the lter assembly and x it in position
correctly; this is essential for maintaining the ecient operation
of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
On occasions, food residue may
become encrusted onto the spray
arms and block the holes used to spray
the water. It is therefore recommended
that you check the arms from time
to time and clean them with a small
non-metallic brush.
To remove the upper spray arm, turn
the plastic locking ring in an anti-
clockwise direction. The upper spray
arm should be replaced so that the side
with the greater number of holes is
facing upwards.
The lower spray arm may be removed
by pulling it upwards.
