Cleaning and Care
To clean the filter in the water inlet valve:
^ Using pliers, carefully loosen the ribbed
plastic nut on the inlet valve, and unscrew.
^ Use water pump pliers to withdraw the
plastic filter by the bar (see illustration).
^ Clean and put back in the reverse order.
The machine must not be used without
the two dirt filters being put back in place
24
^ After use the detergent box should be
cleaned with warm water to remove any
detergent residues.
^ The siphon tubes in compartments § and
y should also be cleaned.
^ Unscrew the screws next to the siphon
tubes.
^ Pull the siphon tubes upwards to remove
for cleaning in warm water. Replace in the
reverse order (the siphon tubes must be
hooked in correctly).
If the machine is not going to be used for
a longer period of time (4 weeks or more)
the drum should be rotated several times
after the last use. The drum should be ro-
tated every 4 weeks to prevent damage to
the bearings.
