Energy Saving Tips
-Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends on
the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being washed and
how dirty they are.
-Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent,
the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater nega-
tive impact on the environment.
How to keep Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and
leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not
trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the
plug from the socket. Do not take risks.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not
use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a
cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a
cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or clean-
ing product made specifically for dishwashers.
Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be
cleaned frequently.
The filter efficiently removes food residue 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" semicircular 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 least once a week.
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 re-
duce level of the appliance and
damage dishes and utensils.
-There is no advantage in rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils
before placing them in the dishwasher.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash
cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from
the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the
appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and
prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position.
If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is
food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a
damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the spray
arms and block the holes. Check the spray arms periodically and
clean them when needed.

Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter (see figure) 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.
