Warning!!!
Do not try to clean the basic filter in a
dishwasher. The plastic on the basic filter
is not suitable for dishwashers and is
unable to withstand the high temperatures
involved in washing programmes. It will
deform and may even break.
These models also come with a purifying filter
(double active) to be fitted by the user (See
"Fitting the purifying filter").
The purifying filter further purifies the air in the
room which passes through the appliance.
When the purifying filter is fitted, the appliance's
cooling capacity may drop slightly. This is
particularly the case when the filter is saturated
or worn. It is, therefore, recommended that you
check and change the filter at least once a year
or when the "change filter" symbol
displayed. These accessories are available for
purchase from the Manufacturer's Official
Technical Service and authorised distributors
(See "Description of accessories").
Press the "+" and the "–" key at the same time
to make the symbol
screen after changing the filter. The symbol
disappears from the screen and the filter is
operational again.
Fitting the purifying filter (double
active):
• Check that the purifying filter is fitted in the
positioner. If it is not, fit as shown on Fig 21.
Place the dark part of the filter in contact with
the positioner.
