MAINTENANCE

Filter system

EN 18
Depending on usage, the filters may require regular rinsing under a tap.
The filtration system consists of three components: the large filter, the
coarse filter and the fine filter.
a. Fine filter: This filter prevents waste and leftover food from entering
the drainage pump and ensures that said leftovers are not spread
over the dishes again during the cycle.
b. Coarse filter: Larger articles, such as leftover bones or pieces of
glass that could block the drain, are trapped in the coarse filter. In
order to remove the waste from the filter, you must lightly squeeze
the lips on top of the filter together and then pull the filter upwards.
c. Large filter: Leftover food and waste that lands on this filter is rinsed
through to the coarse filter by a special jet on the lower spray arm.
Clean the filter group
In order to ensure the dishwasher operates at maximum efficiency,
the whole filter section must be cleaned.
The filter group efficiently removes food remains from the water and
makes sure that the washing water can continue circulating during
the washing program. It is therefore a good idea to remove larger food
remnants from the filter section after each wash cycle, by cleaning
the half-round filter and filter housing under running water.
• Remove the filter section by grasping the handle and pulling upwards.
All components in the filter section must be cleaned at least once per
month.
• Use a dishwashing brush to clean the coarse and fine filter. Put
the filter section back together again according to the illustration
opposite and then re-fit the whole filter section back into the tub
of the dishwasher.
Never use the dishwasher without the filter section. Incorrect fitting
of the filter section will result in the dishwasher no longer delivering
maximum performance. Damage to cutlery and dishes is a further
possible consequence.
