CLEANING THE WATER FILTER / DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER

Switch o and unplug the washing machine before cleaning the water lter or draining residual water. If you used a

hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down before draining any water.

Clean the water lter regularly, to avoid that the water cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the lter.

If the water cannot drain, the display indicates that the water lter may be clogged.

6. Remove the kick panel: Using a screwdriver, do that which

is shown in the following gure.

7. Container for the drained water:

Place a low and wide container under the water lter in

order to collect the residual water.

8. Drain the water:

Slowly turn the lter counter-clockwise until all the water

has come out. Allow the water to ow out without

removing the lter. Once the container is full, close the

water lter by turning it clockwise. Empty the container.

Repeat the procedure until all the water has been drained.

9. Remove lter: Lay a cotton cloth beneath the water lter,

which can absorb a small amount of rest water. Then

remove the water lter by turning it out anticlockwise.

10. Clean the water lter: remove residues in the lter and

clean it under running water.

11. Insert the water lter and reinstall the plinth: Reinsert the

water lter again by turning it in clockwise direction. Make

sure to turn it in as far as it goes; the lter handle must be in

vertical position. To test water tightness of the water lter, you

can pour about 1 liter of water into the detergent dispenser.

Then reinstall the plinth.
