SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Unplug your machine.
Close the water tap.
WATER INLET FILTERS
On the tap part of your machine’s water inlet hose and at the end of the water inlet valve,
there are filters to prevent entrance of dirt and foreign materials in the water to the
machine. If the machine is unable to receive sufficient water, although your water tap is
opened, these filters should be cleaned.
Remove the water inlet hose.
Remove the filter found on the water inlet valve by using a pair of pliers and wash
thoroughly with a brush.
Clean the filter of the water inlet hose, located on the tap side, by removing
manually together with the seal.
After you clean the filters, you can fit them the same way as you have removed
them.
PUMP FILTER
The pump filter system elongates the life of your pump, which is used to drain the dirty
water. It prevents lint from entering the pump. Cleaning of your pump filter every 2-3
months is recommended. To clean your pump filter:
Open the kick-plate’s cover, by pressing down at the top.
Before opening the filter cover, place a shallow tray under the outlet.
Loosen the filter cover by rotating it anti-clockwise and drain the water.
Remove any foreign materials from the filter.
Check for the rotation of the pump manually.
After you have cleaned the pump, fit the filter cover by rotating clockwise.
Put the kick-plate cover into place.
Do not forget that if you do not fit the filter cover properly, it will leak water.
