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.

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).

Fold the cover up and lock it.
Before using the washing machine again:

Pour approx. 1 litre of water into the detergent drawer to reactivate the Eco system.
2.
Reinsert the plug in the socket.
