ATTENTION: Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and
when performing maintenance work. Do not use ammable 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 con-
trol 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 intensies 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.
The lter assembly consists of three lters which remove food residu-
es 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 lters or if the lter is
loose.
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
On occasions, food residue may be-
come 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 remo-
ved by pulling it upwards.

After several washes, 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. 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 ecient
operation of the dishwasher.
