9. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Before maintenance, deactivate
the appliance and disconnect the
mains plug from the mains socket.
Dirty filters and clogged spray arm
decrease the washing results.
Make a check regularly and, if
necessary, clean them.
9.1 Cleaning the filters
B
A
1.
Turn the filter (A) counterclock-
wise and remove it.
2.
Remove the filter (B).

Wash the filters with water.

Before you put the filter (B)
back, make sure that there are
no residues of food or soil in or
around the edge of the sump.
5.
Put the filter (A) into position in

age to the appliance.
9.2 Cleaning the spray arm
1.
Turn the nut counterclockwise.

Clean the holes.
If the holes in the spray arm are clogged,
remove remaining parts of soil with a thin
pointed object.
9.3 External cleaning
Clean the appliance with a moist soft
cloth.
Only use neutral detergents. Do not use
abrasive products, abrasive cleaning pads
or solvents.
9.4 Internal cleaning
If you regularly use short duration pro-
grammes, these can leave deposits of
grease and limescale inside the appliance.
To prevent this, we recommend to run
long duration programmes at least 2
times per month.
