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 semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove
the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly
should be cleaned once a week. To clean the coarse filter and the micro filter, use a cleaning
brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures above 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 filter may reduce the
performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
WARNING!
Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. When cleaning the filters, don't knock
on them.
Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the performance of dishwasher could be
debased.
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray
arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arms, screw off the nut clockwise to take out
the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in soapy and warm
water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing thoroughly.
CARING FOR THE DISHWASHER
To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly.
To clean the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
PROTECT AGAINST FREEZING
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technical to:
1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter in the tub and the bottom and use a sponge to use up water in sump.
