    							Cleaning the filters in the wash
    cabinet
    The filter combination in the base of the
    wash cabinet retains coarse soil from
    the suds solution, preventing it
    accessing the circulation system and
    re-entering the cabinet through the
    spray arms.
    ,The dishwasher must not be
    used without all the filters in place.
    Collection of coarse soil may cause the
    filters to clog. The level of soiling and
    time it takes before the filters need
    cleaning will vary depending on use.
    Check the condition of the filters
    regularly and clean them if necessary.
    ^Switch the dishwasher off.^Turn the handle anti-clockwise to
    release the filter combinationa.
    ^Lift the filter combination out of the
    dishwasherb. Remove any coarse
    particles and rinse the filter well
    under running water. Use a nylon
    brush if necessary.
    Cleaning and care

    							To clean the inside of the filter, the flap
    must be opened:
    ^Press together the catches in the
    direction of the arrowsaas shown,
    and open the filterb.
    ^Rinse all the filters under running
    water.
    ^Then close the flap so that the catch
    engages.^Replace the filter combination so that
    it lies flat in the base of the wash
    cabinet.
    ^Then turn the handle clockwise to
    lock the filter combination in place.
    ,Take care when you are fitting
    the filter combination that it is
    secured in position correctly.
    Otherwise coarse soil could get into
    the circulation system and cause a
    blockage.
    Cleaning and care

    							Cleaning the spray arms
    Particles of food can get stuck in the
    spray arm jets and bearings. The spray
    arms should therefore be inspected
    and cleaned regularly (approx. every
    4 - 6 months).
    ^Switch the dishwasher off.
    Remove the spray arms as follows:
    ^Take out the cutlery tray (if your
    dishwasher is fitted with one).
    ^Push thetopspray arm upwards to
    engage the inner ratchet. Then
    unscrew the spray arm.

    particles into the spray arm jets.
    ^

    ^
    Replace the spray arms and check
    that they rotate freely.
