Cleaning and care

^Once the flow of water ceases, re- move the fluff filter completely.

^Clean the fluff filter thoroughly.

^Remove any foreign objects (e.g. buttons, coins, etc.) and fluff.

^Turn the impeller by hand to check that it is free to rotate. Any foreign ob- jects causing an obstruction should be removed.

^Clean the inside of the fluff filter hous- ing.

Remove any deposits of limescale and detergent or foreign objects from the thread of the filter housing and filter unit (as these objects can cause a leakage of water). Deposits of limescale are of- ten a sign of underdosage of powder.

^Put the fluff filter back in place and secure it.

Make sure the fluff filter is securely tightened. Otherwise there is a risk of water leakage during use.

After cleaning

^Pour approx. 2 litres of water into the detergent dispenser compartment j to reactivate the ball valve which keeps detergent in circulation in the suds.
