Cleaning the water inlet filters
The washing machine has two filters to
protect the inlet valves.
These filters should be checked every
six months or so, or more often if there
are frequent interruptions to the water
supply.
To clean the filter in the union in the
open end of the inlet hose:
^
First turn off the tap.
^
Unscrew the threaded union
connecting the free end of the inlet
hose to the tap.
^
Remove the rubber seal
1
from the
recess.
^
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter bar
2
, remove the filter
and clean.
^
Put the filter and seal back in the
reverse order and reconnect the
hose.
^
Turn on the tap and check the
connection is watertight.
To clean the filter in the water inlet
valve
^
Using pliers, carefully loosen the
ribbed plastic nut on the inlet valve
and unscrew.
^
Use water pump pliers to withdraw
the plastic filter by the bar (see
illustration). Clean, put back and
secure.
The two filters
must
be put back in
place after cleaning.
