Foreign metal substances will cause rust
stains in the drum. Clean the stains on the drum
surface by using cleaning agents for stainless
steel. Never use steel wool or wire wool.

5.3 Cleaning the body and control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with soapy water or
non-corrosive mild gel detergents as necessary, and
dry with a soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control
panel.
5.4 Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve
at the rear of the machine and also at the end of each
water intake hose where they are connected to the
tap. These filters prevent foreign substances and dirt
in the water to enter the washing machine. Filters
should be cleaned as they do get dirty.
1. Close the taps.
2. Remove the nuts of the water intake hoses to
access the filters on the water intake valves. Clean
them with an appropriate brush. If the filters are
too dirty, take them out by means of pliers and
clean them.
3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of the water
intake hoses together with the gaskets and clean
thoroughly under running water.
4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully in their
places and tighten the hose nuts by hand.

5.5 Draining remaining water and cleaning
the pump filter
The filter system in your machine prevents solid
items such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers
clogging the pump impeller during discharge of
washing water. Thus, the water will be discharged
without any problem and the service life of the pump
will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter
is clogged. Filter must be cleaned whenever it is
clogged or in every 3 months. Water must be drained
off first to clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g.,
when moving to another house) and in case of
freezing of the water, water may have to be drained
completely.
A
CAUTION:
Foreign substances left in the
pump filter may damage your machine or may
cause noise problem.
In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge
the water:
1. Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.
A
CAUTION:
Temperature of the water inside
the machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid
burning risk, filter must be cleaned after the
water in the machine cools down.
2. Open the filter cap.
If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, press
the tab on the filter cap downwards and pull the
piece out towards yourself.
