Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Tighten up the inlet hose. Clean carefully under a fast
running tap.
The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
●Turn off the water tap.
●Unscrew the inlet hose.
●Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and
that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor
and let water drain out.
●Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition
the emergency emptying hose after having put the
cap on again.
●When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C
