Cleaning the water inlet filters
Filters are incorporated in to the intake
hose attached to the washer’s shut off
valve. The filters must be cleaned when
dirty or insufficient water flows into the
wash cabinet.
,
The plastic valve housing on the
intake hose contains electrical
components and should
not be
immersed or run through water.
Cleaning the filter:
^
Disconnect the machine from the
power supply (unplug it or "trip" the
circuit breaker).
^
Carefully remove the rubber seal.
Turn off the water valve. Unscrew the
water inlet hose.
^
Remove the filters using needle nose
pliers. Rinse the large area filter,
1
, and
fine filter, 2 , under running water, and
replace if necessary.
^
Return filters and seal. Make sure
they are seated correctly.
^
Screw the intake hose back on the
water valve, checking that it is not
cross-threaded.
^
Slowly turn on the valve and test for
leaks. If there is a leak, screw the
connections on more tightly.
Cleaning the control panel
^
Only clean the control panel with a
damp cloth.
,
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Do not use abrasive, glass or all
purpose cleaners! They will damage
the surface.
Cleaning the exterior
^
Stainless steel surfaces can be
cleaned using a non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner. To help
prevent resoiling, a conditioner for
stainless steel can also be used.
Apply sparingly with even pressure.
,
Do not use any cleaner
containing ammonia or thinners.
Never use abrasive cleaners,
scouring pads, steel wool or caustic
(oven) cleaners on the machine.
They will damage the surface.
