The rinse aid container can be found to the
right of the detergent container: it has a

capacity of about 130 ml (Fig A "3"). Turn the
cap (3) anticlockwise and pour enough liquid
to last several washes, up to the maximum
level shown. Replace the cap.
The rinse aid, which is automatically
released during the last rinsing cycle, helps
the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots
and stains forming.
It is always advisable to use rinse aid.
Check the rinse aid level through the indicator
eye which is situated in the centre of the

The limestone content of the water considerably
affects the formation of limescale and the
drying performance.
It is therefore important to regulate the
quantity of rinse aid to achieve good
washing results.
If, after the wash, streaks occur on the
dishes, decrease the amount by one position.
If whitish spots occur, increase the amount
by one position.

Cleaning the filters

The filter system (fig.A "4") consists of:
a central container that traps the larger
particles.
a flat gauze that continuously filters the
wash water
a micro filter, located beneath the gauze,
that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a
perfect rinse.
To achieve excellent results every time, the
filters should be checked and cleaned after
each wash.
To remove the filter unit, simply turn the
handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
For ease of cleaning, the central container is
removable (fig. 2).
Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the
whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary
a small brush can be used.
With the Self-cleaning Micro filter, mainte-
nance is reduced and the filter unit need only
be checked every two weeks. Nevertheless,
after each wash it is advisable to check that
the central container and the gauze filter are
not clogged.
NB: after cleaning the filters, make sure
that they are correctly reassembled and
that the gauze filter is properly positioned
at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Make sure that the filter is screwed back,
clockwise, into the gauze, as poor
seating of the filter unit could have an
adverse effect on the efficiency of the
appliance.
Warning: never use the dishwasher
without the filters.
