							Triple filter system
The triple filter system in the base of the
wash cabinet retains coarse dirt from
the suds solution, preventing it from
reaching the circulation system and
re-entering the cabinet through the
spray arms.
The dishwasher must not be
used without all the filters in place.
Collection of coarse dirt may cause the
filters to clog. The level of soiling and
time it takes before the filters need
cleaning will vary depending on your
household use.
The message
Check filterswill appear
in the display after every 50 program
cycles (factory default setting).
The filter check frequency can be set
from 30 and 60 program cycles (see
Settings, filter check).

Check the triple filter system.

Clean the triple filter, if necessary.

Confirm the message with the center
button.
The display changes to the Main menu.
Cleaning the triple filter
Turn the dishwasher off.
Turn the handle counter-clockwise to
release the triple filter system.
Remove the triple filter system from
the machine. Clean any solid
particles and rinse the filter well
under running water. Scrub with a
nylon brush if necessary.
Make sure that when cleaning
the filters, no coarse dirt falls into the
circulation system, causing a
blockage.
