Cleaning and maintenance

Door seal

Check from time to time the door seal and eliminate eventual possible objects that could be trapped in the fold.

Drain filter

The drain filter collects threads and small objects inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that the filter is clean.

Open the filter door.

Place a contain- er under the fil- ter and unscrew it; some water will come out of the filter.

Pull out the fil- ter.

Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it, screwing it fully in.

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 in the hose with a stiff brush.

Screw the hose back onto the tap.
