Cleaning the water inlet filters
The washer has two water inlet filters to
protect each inlet valve. These filters
should be checked and cleaned if
necessary every 6 months. This may
need to be done more frequently with
some water supplies.
^
Turn off the water supply.
^
Unscrew the inlet hose from the valve
by turning the connector counter-
clockwise using a wrench if
necessary.
^
Remove the rubber seal,
1
, from the
connector.
^
Using needle nose pliers, grasp the
plastic filter,
2
, and pull it out of the
hose connector.
^
Clean the filter under running water
and carefully remove any large
particles.
^
Replace the filter and seal then
reconnect the hose.
^
Slowly turn on the valve and check
for leaks. If water leaks, tighten the
bolt.
Both filters
must
be put back in
place after cleaning.
