CLEANING THE INLET FILTER
You should clean the inlet filter periodically, or if you find
that insufficient water is being supplied to your washing
machine when the supply tap is open.
To clean the inlet filter:
• Close the water supply tap.
• Select any wash program (except for Spin Only or Drain
Only) and press the Start/Pause button. Allow the
program to run for about 40 seconds.
• Remove the inlet pipe from the closed tap and use
water to wash the filter.
• Reconnect the inlet pipe to the tap.
To clean the washing machine filter:
• Screw off the inlet pipe from the rear of the washing
machine.
• Pull out the filter with long nose pliers, wash it
thoroughly with water and re-install the filter.
• Reconnect the inlet pipe to the rear of the washing
machine.
• Open the water supply at the tap and ensure there is no
water leakage.
• Once finished, close the water supply tap.
Note: Generally the tap inlet filter is washed first followed
by the washing machine filter. If only the washing machine
filter is washed, then you should still follow steps 1-3 for
cleaning the inlet filter first.
REMOVING FOREIGN OBJECTS
WARNING:
To avoid the risk of an electric shock, always
remove the power plug from the power
outlet before cleaning the Drain Pump filter.
Periodically you should clean the drain pump filter to ensure
normal operation of your washing machine. The type of
washing, frequency and soil level of your washing cycles
will alter how often this procedure needs to be undertaken,
however you should inspect the filter regularly.
Should your washing machine not empty and/or spin, or
your machine makes unusual noises during
operation, your Drain Pump filter could be blocked. Follow
this procedure to check or remove any
foreign objects.
• After disconnecting the power, open the filter cover at
the front base of your washing machine.
• Unscrew the filter in an anti-clockwise direction and
remove any foreign objects.
• Re-install the filter and close the service panel.
WARNING:
Never remove the pump cover when the
washing machine is in operation, always wait until the
appliance has finished and the is empty. There can be hot
water within the pump, so be careful to avoid burns, should
it have operated recently. When replacing the cover, be
careful to ensure it is closed securely.
