Machine care
Cleaning the filters in the water
inlet
Filters are incorporated in the screw
connection of the water inlet hose to
protect the water inlet valve. If these
filters become dirty they need to be
cleaned, otherwise insufficient water
flows into the wash cabinet.
,
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be
submerged in water.
To clean the filters
^ Disconnect the machine from the
main electrical supply.
^ Turn off the water supply.
^ Unscrew the water inlet hose.
^ Clean the large area filter, 1, and fine
filter, 2. Replace with new filters if
necessary.

^ Replace the filters and seal. Make
sure they are sitting correctly.
^ Reconnect the hose to the water inlet,
making sure that is not
cross-threaded.
^ Open the water tap carefully.
If there is a leak, tighten the
connections.

Cleaning the control panel

cleaned with a damp cloth or a
cleaner suitable for use on plastics.

cleaners. They will damage the
control panel.
Cleaning the front of the
machine

material the machine front is fitted
with.
