Sound Notifi Cation Setting; Child Safety Lock; Child Protection Function; Cleaning And Maintenance - ECG EWF 1280 IDA+++ Instruction Manual

Sound notifi cation setting

If you want to change the sound signal setting of program completion, turn on the machine and press the
Start/Pause button until the signal is heard. This will turn the sound signal off after washing is complete. Repeat
the above steps to turn on the signal again.

Child safety lock

The washing machine is equipped with a child lock feature that prevents the program from being changed
by accidentally pressing the buttons or turning the program selector. If the function is activated, the door can
not be opened.
You can activate the child safety lock by long pressing (at least 3 seconds) the temperature setting button while
the washing machine is switched on.
Repeat the steps above to turn off the child lock.

Child protection function

If you open the washing machine door repeatedly before you start washing, the child protection program is
automatically activated. When the door is open, the motor rotates the drum of the washing machine, then the
door remains unlocked for a while before starting the wash cycle. If you open the door at this time, the washing
machine stops.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Unplug the machine before maintenance or cleaning.
• Close the water tap before starting maintenance or cleaning.
Warning: If you use cleaners containing solvents, you could damage
parts of the washing machine. Do not use agents containing
solvents for cleaning.

Pump fi lter

Pump fi ltration system prevents penetration of textile fi bres and small objects from
water discharged into the pump and thus prolongs its lifespan. We recommend
cleaning the pump fi lter every month.
Pump fi lter cleaning:
• Use a coin to open the pump cover, insert it into the groove and push it.
• Before opening the fi lter cover, place in front of the lid a container to avoid leaking
any water from the washing machine on the fl oor.
• Release the fi lter by turning it counterclockwise and drain the water.
Note: Depending on the amount of water in the washing machine you might have to empty the container
several times.
• Remove foreign objects from the fi lter using a brush and wash it with water.
• Insert and screw the fi lter back clockwise after cleaning it. Tighten the fi lter suffi ciently to prevent water
leaks.
• Do not remove the fi lter during washing!
WARNING!
The water in the pump may be hot, wait until it cools down.

Detergent drawer

Unused detergent may collect in the detergent drawer or its cover. Therefore from time to time remove the
detergent drawer and remove this build-up. We recommend that you clean the drawer every two months.
