Preventing a frozen water supply hose
If your washing machine is delivered in freezing weather conditions, leave it at room
temperature for 24 hours after you’ve set it up before using it. This ensures there’s no
ice blocking the water supply hose. If your water supply hose freezes, add 2 or 3 litres of
warm water to the drum and wait for 10 minutes.
Cleaning the filter net of the water supply hose
1. Turn the water supply off at the tap.
2. Close the washing machine door and select “Quick” or “Drum Clean” program and
press the START / PAUSE button.
3. When finished, turn the power off. Remove the water supply hose from the tap.
4. Manually remove the filter net located on the tap side of the water supply hose and
clean using a small brush (e.g. a toothbrush).
5. Return the filter net to its original position.
6. Re-connect the water supply hose to the tap and turn the tap back on, checking for
leaks.
