WATER INLET FILTERS

On the tap part of your machine’s water inlet hose and at the ends of water inlet valves, there are filters to prevent entrance of the dirt and foreign materials in the water to the machine.

After you clean the filters, you can fit them the same way as you have removed.

Remove the foreign materials from the filter.

Check for the rotation of the pump manually.

After you have cleaned the pump, fit the filter cover by rotating clockwise.
