Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be
cleaned.
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water,
allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it
is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the
filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the "A" semi-circular filter
and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull
on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter as-
sembly (made up of the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine
filter) should be cleaned at; east once a month. To clean the filter
and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the
filter parts as shown in the figures below and reinsert the entire
assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing
downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may reduce the performance level of
the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It may happen that food particles become encrusted on the
sprayer arms and block the holes (see "Close up view interior",
letters C-E ). Check the sprayer arms periodically and clean them
when needed.
It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does not
function properly. Before calling for assistance, See what can
be done first: Have you forgotten to press one of the buttons or
to perform an essential operation?
The dishwasher does not start
Have you checked whether:
- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;
- the power is on in the house;
- the door is closed properly;
- the ON-OFF switch is on "ON";
- the water supply is turned on.

The dishwasher does not load water
Have you checked whether:
- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;
- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bend;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.
The dishwasher does not drain
Have you checked whether:
- the drain hose is crimped or bend.
Lime deposits or a white film form on the dishes
Have you checked whether:
- the lid to the salt container is closed properly;
- the rinse aid dosage is correct.
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function
and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised service
centre and provide them with the following information:
- the nature of the problem;
- the model and the serial number which are indicated on the plate
located on the side of the inner part of the door.
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to allow
parts to be installed that are not original spare parts.

Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter (see fig.1/A) located on
the outlet of the water supply tap.
After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water sup-
ply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running
water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten the water
supply hose back into position.
