Warning!
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the pump. Never remove the pump
cover during a wash cycle, always wait until
the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it
is securely retightened so as to stop leaks
and young children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filters
If your water is very hard or contains traces
of lime deposit, the water inlet filters may be-
come clogged. It is therefore a good idea to
clean them from time to time.
1. Turn off the water taps.
2. Unscrew the water inlet hoses from the
taps.
3. Clean the filters using a hard bristle brush.
4. Screw the hoses back onto the taps.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as
follows to empty out the machine:
1. pull out the plug from the power socket;
2. close the water taps;
3. if necessary, wait until the water has
cooled down;
4. open the pump door;
5. place a bowl on the floor and place the
end of the emergency emptying hose into
the bowl. Remove its cap. The water
should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap back
on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the
procedure until water stops flowing out;
6. clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
7. replace the emergency emptying hose in
its seat after having plugged it;
8. screw the pump again and close the
door.
Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed
as follows:
1. close the water taps and unscrew the
water inlet hoses from the taps;
2. place the end of the emergency emptying
hose and that of the inlet hoses in a bowl
placed on the floor and let water drain
out;
3. screw the water inlet hoses back on and
reposition the emergency emptying hose
after having refit the cap on.
