Other Useful Information (Cont.)
Cleaning the hose filter
(suggested interval: every 6 months)
• To avoid blockage of the hose filter after
long time use, detach the water inlet hose,
making sure you have turned off the water
supply at the taps beforehand.
• Turn the nut anticlockwise to take off the
hose, clean the filter under running water or
with a soft brush, then reconnect the hose
(Fig. 14).
Drain pump maintenance
• Clean the drain pump filter periodically (at
least once a month) to avoid blockages
created by hair pins, coins and excess lint.
• The drain pump is located at the front of the
washer, in the bottom right corner, behind
the cover (Fig. 15).
• Open the cover to the drain pump and
place a container or a rag underneath to
collect any spillage.
• Unscrew the filter and take it out.
• Clean the filter gently under running water.
• Reinstall the filter and tighten it.
Freezing conditions
• When temperatures have fallen below zero
and water has frozen in the water supply
hose, proceed as follows:
• Wrap a hot towel around the water tap and
the water supply hose joint (Fig. 16).
• Disconnect the water supply hose and soak
it in a tub of hot water of approximately
50°C.
• Pour about 2-3 litres of hot water
(approximately 50°C) into the drum of the
washing machine (Fig. 17).
• When all frozen water has thawed,
reconnect the water supply hose, open the
tap and start the machine to check whether
all blockages have been removed.
