Cleaning the filter
The water drain filter
A clean filter is important for the correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after every
washing programme.
Place a container under the filter to catch any spillage. If
the filter is blocked and the machine is unable to drain
you will need to drain the water manually from the
machine at this stage. To do this, unhook the drain hose
from the standpipe or sink and hold the end of the hose
over a bowl on the floor. The water should drain by
gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, hook the
hose back up and empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure
until water stops flowing out.
Unscrew and remove the filter.
Clean carefully under a fast running tap.
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the filter.
Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, always
wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being
able to remove it.
The water inlet filters
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filters may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean them from time to
time.
Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses.
Remove and clean the filters using a hard bristle brush.
Replace the filters and tighten up the inlet hoses.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
■
Turn off the water taps.
■
Unscrew the inlet hoses.
■
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet
hoses in a bowl. Run the draining programme.
■
Disconnect the appliance.
■
Screw the inlet hoses and reposition the drain hose.
■
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.
