Filter assembly
For best
erformance and results, the filter assembl
must be cleaned.
The filter efficientl
removes food
articles from the wash water, allowin
it to be
recirculated durin

ood idea to remove the lar
er
food
articles tra
ed in the filter after each wash c
cle b
rinsin
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 at least
once a month.
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleanin
brush. Then, reassemble
the filter parts as shown in the figures left 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 ma
reduce the
