8. Care and maintanence
To prevent objects entering the pump and causing
damage, your machine employs a filter system that
extends the pump life. It is advisable that you should
clean the filter at every 30-40 washes. Before opening
the filter door, disconnect the power. Turn the opening
of kick plate screws 90° with a help of screw driver
or a coin. Place a little pan infront of the filter door
to catch the small amount of water spilling from the
machine. Remove the filter by turning in an anti
clockwise direction. After cleaning the filter, replace
it by turning clockwise and make sure that it is closed
firmly. Replace the kick plate and secure it by the
locking screws.
Detergent dispenser
To clean the detergent residues, remove the detergent
dispenser by pressing on the area marked on the
siphon. Wash the dispenser with water and also clean
the dispenser housing before reinserting the dispenser.
Siphon
Clean the siphon (coloured piece in the dispenser) every 30-40 washes. Pull
out the siphon by holding its edges. To prevent clogging, clean the softener
residues thoroughly and make sure that the siphon fits into position correctly
before any operation.
Cleaning the pump filter
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, have a technician to control the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed at cold ambient
temperatures, the water remaining inside the pump and hoses
should be removed from the filters. Also to prevent freezing,
empty the water intake hoses
by disconnecting from taps.

Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection module and water inlet hose-tap side, there exists filters. These filters prevent any dirt
and objects passing into the machine. It is advisable that these filters should be cleaned every 30-40 washes. To clean the filter,
first turn the tap off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty, you may clean it by
pulling out with pliers. To clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull it out by hand and clean the filter under the tap water.
