CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
7.1 Warning
Turn your mains power
supply off and remove
the plug from the socket
before carrying out
maintenance and cleaning
of your machine. Turn off
the water supply before
starting maintenance and
cleaning of your machine.
CAUTION:
Do not
use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners
or all-purpose cleaning
agents to clean your
Washing Machine. They
may damage the plastic
surfaces and other
components with the
chemicals they contain.
7.2 Water Inlet Filters
Water inlet filters prevent dirt and foreign
materials from entering your machine. We
recommend that these filters are cleaned
when your machine is unable to receive
sufficient water, although your water supply
is on and the tap is open. We recommend
that you clean your water inlet filters every
2 months.
•
Unscrew the water inlet hose(s) from
the Washing Machine.
•
To remove the water inlet filter from
the water inlet valve, use a pair of
longnosed pliers to gently pull on the
plastic bar in the filter.
•
A second water inlet filter is located in
the tap end of the water inlet hose. To
remove the second water inlet filter,
use a pair of long-nosed pliers to gently
pull on the plastic bar in the filter.
•
Clean the filter thoroughly with a soft
brush and wash with soapy water and
rinse thoroughly. Re-insert the filter by
gently pushing it back into place.
CAUTION:
The filters at the water
inlet valve may become clogged due
to water quality or lack of required
maintenance and may break down.
This may cause a water leak. Any
such breakdowns are out of the scope
of the warranty.
