Cleaning
The dishwasher’s inner container is made of
stainless steel and is kept clean through nor-
mal use. However, if you have calciferous
(hard) water, lime deposits can form in the
dishwasher. In this case, run a normal wash
program with two tablespoons of citric acid
in the dishwasher detergent compartment.
Coarse filter
The coarse filter collects large food particles
which cannot get past the drain pump. Lift
out and empty the coarse filter as neces-
sary. Don’t forget to replace it!
Fine filter
The residue collected on the fine filter is auto-
matically rinsed off with each wash. The fine
filter should still be cleaned once or twice a year.
1. Remove the fine filter by first turning the filter’s
strainer counter-clockwise and then lifting
the strainer and filter straight up.
2. Clean with a dishwashing brush. Ensure
that the edges are properly sealed when
replacing the fine filter.
Drain pump
The pump can be accessed from inside the
machine.
1. Always unplug the dishwasher or turn the
power to the unit off at the circuit breaker
before cleaning the pump.
2. First remove the coarse filter by pressing
together the two catches and lifting the
filter upwards.
3. Then remove the filter’s strainer by turn-
ing it counter-clockwise and remove the
fine filter.
4. Finally remove the Pump access plug to
the left in the bottom drain.
5. By inserting a finger into the hole you can
rotate the pump blade and remove any
blockages.
6. Replace the Pump access plug and fil-
ters.
7. Insert the electrical plug back into the outlet.
