Warning

Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.

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.

P1090

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.

Important!

Every time you drain the water through the emergency emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer and then run the drain programme. This will activate the ECO valve.

Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged, 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;

•Open the pump door;

•Place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out;

•Clean the pump if necessary as previously described;

•Replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after having plugged it;

•Screw the pump cover again and close the door.
