Internal cleaning

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent

and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a

damp cloth.

We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash

programme without dishes using detergent.

Cleaning the central filter

(After each wash)

Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A)

and should be removed by rinsing the filter under

running water.

To remove the drain filter

- simply pull it out by the handle.

Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its

original position until it engages.

Cleaning the large filter

(Every month)

If necessary clean the large filter (B) on both sides

under running water, using a brush.

To remove the large filter

1. Remove the spray arm by pulling it upwards on one 

side.

2. Turn the column (C) anticlockwise by 90° and then 

slide out the filter.

3. Once cleaned refit it following the above instructions

in reverse order.

4. Ensure the filter is in its original position, the handle 

of the drain filter should be pointing towards the 

front of the appliance.

The dishwasher must not be used without 

filters.

Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the 

filters will produce poor washing results.

Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct 

operation of the machine.
