Cleaning and special maintenance
Cleaning the sprayer
arms.
Food residue may become
encrusted onto the sprayer
arms and block the holes where
water comes out. Check the
sprayer arms regularly and
clean them once in a while
(letters F and I How is it
made?).
Once in a while, once a
month, spend a little
time on the filter
assembly and the
sprayer arms.
Keep your dishwasher in shape
After every wash.
When the wash cycle has
ended, always remember to
turn off the water supply tap
and to leave the appliance door
ajar. This way, moisture and
bad odours will not be trapped
inside.
Unplug the appliance.
Before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance on the
dishwasher, always remove the
plug from the electricity socket.
Do not run risks.
No solvents! No
abrasives!
To clean the exterior and
rubber parts of your appliance,
do not use solvents or abrasive
cleaning products. Use a cloth
dampened with lukewarm
soapy water only.
If there are any stains on the
surface of the appliance
interior, use a cloth dampened
with water and a little white
vinegar, or a cleaning product
specifically made for
dishwashers.
Going on holiday?
When you go away for an
extended period of time, we
recommend you do the
following:
 run a cycle with the
dishwasher empty
 turn off the water inlet tap.
 leave the appliance door ajar
This will help the seals last
longer and prevent unpleasant
odours from forming inside the
appliance.
Moving the appliance.
Should the appliance have to be
moved, try to keep it in a
vertical position. If absolutely
necessary, it can be positioned
on its back.
The seals.
One of the factors that cause
unpleasant odours to form
inside the dishwasher is food
that remains trapped in the
seals. Periodic cleaning using a
damp sponge will prevent this
from occurring.
Your dishwasher is not a waste disintegrator!
Do not worry about removing every single bit of
food residue from your dishes, but do get rid of
bones, peel and rind and any other left-overs
before placing them in the racks. Empty out all
glasses and cups.
Care and maintenance
Respecting these few rules ensures you will always have a reliable work
companion by your side.
The filter The filter
assembly
If you want consistent good
results from your dishwasher,
you need to clean the filter
assembly.
The food particles are removed
from the wash water, allowing
it to be recirculated during the
cycle, filtered perfectly. For this
reason, it is a good idea to
remove the larger food particles
trapped inside the semi-circular
filter A and cup Cafter each
wash; to remove the filter
assembly, pull the cup handle
upwards. All you need to do is
rinse them under running
water.
The entire filter assembly
should be cleaned thoroughly
once a month: semi-circular
filter A + cup C + cylindrical
filter B+ microfilter D.
To remove filter B, turn it anti-
clockwise. Use a small non-me-
tallic brush for cleaning.
Reassemble the filter parts (as
shown in the figure) and
reinsert the whole assembly
into the dishwasher. Position it
into its housing and press
downwards.

even damage your dishwasher.
