Once the flow of water ceases, remove the fluff filter completely.

Clean the fluff filter thoroughly.

Remove any foreign objects (e.g. buttons, coins, etc.) and fluff.

Turn the impeller by hand to check that it is free to rotate. Any foreign ob- jects causing an obstruction should be removed.

Clean the inside of the fluff filter hous- ing.

Remove any deposits of lime scale and detergent or foreign objects from the thread of the filter housing and filter unit (as these objects can cause a leakage of water). Deposits of limescale are often a sign of underdosage of powder.
