Maintenance and cleaning

Detergent Drawer

The powder detergent remnants may accumulate in the detergent drawer. To clean the detergent drawer, pull the drawer towards you by pressing the marked point of the siphon in the softener compartment as shown in the illustration. Wash the drawer in the sink with plenty of water.

Siphon

Do not forget to clean the siphon

(the colored part in the detergent drawer) when it gets dirty. To remove the siphon, first take out the detergent drawer. To prevent clogging, clean the softener remnants inside of it. After cleaning, put back the siphon and check if it is well seated or not.

Inlet Water Filters

At the end of the water inlet valves which are mounted to the back of the machine and the flat end of the water inlet hoses that are mounted onto the taps, there is one filter for each. These filters prevent the foreign substances and dirt in the water entering the machine. Filters should be cleaned when they get dirty. To do this, close the taps. Remove the water inlet hoses. Clean the tops of the filters on the water inlet valves with a thin brush. If the filters are very dirty, you can pull out with pliers and clean them. The filters on the flat end of the water inlet hoses should be taken out with their gaskets by hand and cleaned thoroughly under the flowing water.(Thereare2filtersinthemachineswith single (cold) water inlet and 4 filters in the machineswithdouble(hot-cold)waterinlets.
