Cleaning the mesh filter in the water supply hose and the water inlet valve
1. Close the tap (stopcock) and unscrew the water supply hose (Fig. 19).
2. Carefully clean the mesh filter at the end of the hose with a fine brush (Fig. 20).
3. Now unscrew the water supply hose at the back of the appliance by hand. Remove the
mesh filter from the water inlet valve at the back of the appliance with needle-nose pliers
(be careful not to damage it) and clean it carefully (Fig. 21).
4. Reinsert the mesh filter back into the back of the washing machine. Reconnect the water
supply hose to the tap and to the appliance. Do not use a tool to connect the inlet hose.
Open the water tap and check that all connections are tight (Fig. 22).
Cleaning the drain pump filter
WARNING: DANGER OF BURNS. Danger of skin injury from hot water!
Take special care when draining water from the appliance and opening the lid.
It is advisable to clean the filter of the drain pump from time to time to ensure that there are
no problems.
The pump of the appliance may become blocked with loose debris (remember to check the
drum and remove visible debris after each load). Fabrics that shed large amounts of lint can
also cause blockages.
To access the drain pump filter, you must first open the cover on the bottom right-hand side.
Press lightly to open the lid (Fig. 23). With the lid open, proceed as follows:
1. If the appliance has not been drained, try draining it now. First, turn the wash cycle
selector to select the SPIN programme, press the SPEED button until the display shows
"-", then press the START/PAUSE button. Wait a moment for the pump to drain the water
from the drum. If the pump is totally blocked, the water will not be able to drain, and the
cycle will end.
2. Turn off the tap so that no more water enters. Turn off the appliance. Disconnect the
power cord from the plug.
3. Use the removable drain hose located on the filter access opening to drain the remaining
water into a suitable container (up to 20 litres of water can be drained). Remove the plug
from the hose and place it over the side of a suitable container and allow the water to
drain out of the drum. When finished, replace the sealing plug on the end of the hose and
return the hose to its storage location. Be careful not to spill the drained water on the
floor (Fig. 24).
4. Turn the filter cover counterclockwise to remove the filter. A small amount of residual
water may flow out when the lid is removed. Clean the inside, as well as the filter itself,
removing any debris or foreign objects. Remove any lint, dirt or detergent residue from
the filter thread. You can use water, a cloth or a soft brush. Reinstall it in its original
position (Fig. 25).
