Cleaning and maintenance

Drain filter

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

Place a container

under the filter and unscrew it; some water will come out of the filter.

Pull out the filter.

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 and remove the filter.

Clean it with a stiff brush.

Refit the filter and screw the hose back onto the tap.
