4. Water inlet filter
If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not blocked.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the hose from the tap. Clean the filter with a stiff brush. Screw the hose back onto the tap.
5. Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged (outlet pump is blocked, filter or outlet hose are clogged), proceed as follows to empty out the machine:
■pull out the plug from the power socket;
■close the water tap;
■if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;
■place a bowl on the floor;
■put the outlet hose end into the bowl and let the water come out.
Should it not be possible to have access to the outlet hose because, for example, the appliance is built in the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the outlet filter after placing a bowl on the floor, to let the water come out slowly.
At the end screw the filter again.
6. Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as follows:
■Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose from the tap.
■Place the end of the outlet hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor.
■Select programme Q and run it until the machine stops.
■Remove the plug from the socket.
■Screw the water inlet hose back on and put the outlet hose back in its place.
By doing this, any water remaining in the machine is removed, avoiding the formation of ice and, consequently, breakage of the affected parts.
When you use the machine again, make sure that the ambient temperature is above 0°C.
