Cleaning the water inlet filters
If the appliance doesn't fill, it takes a long time to fill with water, the starting button blinks yellow or the display (if available) shows the relevant alarm (see chapter "What to do if..." for more details), check if the water inlet filters are blocked .
To clean the water inlet filters:
1. Turn off the water tap.
2. Unscrew the hose from the tap.
3. Clean the filter in the hose with a stiff brush.
4. Screw the hose back onto the tap. Make sure the connection is tight.
5. Unscrew the hose from the machine. Keep a towel nearby because some water may flow.
6. Clean the filter in the valve with a stiff brush or with the piece of cloth.
7. Screw the hose back to the machine and make sure the connection is tight.
