A little neutral cleaner (not abrasive) can be 
used

We recommend that you check and clean the 
filter regularly, at least two or three times a year 
(see “Removing The Filter”)

Before emptying the residual water, switch the appliance off and unplug it from the 
mains socket.
Open the cover to the foreign body trap. Open the filter cover with the help of the 
coloured insert from the detergent container. Place a container beneath it.

1.

Open the filter but do not withdraw it completely. Slowly turn the handle anticlockwise until the 
water drains out.

2.

Wait until all the water has drained off.

3.

Now unscrew the filter completely and remove it.

4.

Tilt the appliance forwards carefully to allow the water to flow out.

5.

Insert the filter with the guide pin upwards and screw it in clockwise to the stop (handle horizontal).

6.

Fold the cover up and lock it.

Before using the washing machine again:

1.

Pour approx. 1 litre of water into the detergent drawer to reactivate the Eco system.

2.

Reinsert the plug in the socket.
