CARE AND MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION: Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it
and when performing maintenance work. Do not use flammable
liquids to clean the machine.
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 mo-
isture from forming and being trapped inside the machine.
Clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers regu-
larly 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 dama-
ged, 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 intensifies 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 trig-
gered, and the hose must be replaced by a new one.
For unscrewing this hose, press the release button while unscre-
wing the hose.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an exten-
ded 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 filter assembly so that the filters do not clog
and that the waste water flows away correctly.
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food
residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water:
to obtain the best washing results, you need to keep them clean.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters or if the
filter is loose.
After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary
clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic
brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical filter A in an anti-clockwise direction and
pull it out (Fig 1).
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the
side flaps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate filter C (Fig 3).
4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER RE-
MOVE the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).

After cleaning the filters, re-place the filter assembly and fix it in
position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient
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.
