Note:
intentional damage or that derived from carelessness, negligence, lack of respect for the regulations,
instructions and norms or erred connections are not to be considered the responsibility of the manufacturer.
10.1 Daily cleaning
The dishwasher has an IPX4 protection rating, but the use of direct streams of water for its cleaning is forbidden.
Cleaning of the filter during the day
In case of particularly heavy usage it is recommended to perform a cleaning of the filter every 30-40 wash cycles in
order to maintain the machine in operative conditions; Use “partial Tank draining” in order to perform these
cleanings.
Remove the filters (it is sufficient to lift them out of their lodgings as shown
in the figure), making sure that greasy residues do not fall into the opening
underneath the filters. Clean away the residues and rinse the filters
abundantly before correctly replacing them; Do not utilize pointy or sharp
objects for cleaning.
Be sure to remove eventual hardened calcium deposits in order to avoid
their accumulation;
