(Cleaning the drum)
Washing at low temperatures and/or
using liquid detergent can cause
bacteria and unpleasant odours to build
up in the washing machine. Use the
Cottons 90 °C programme to clean the
washing machine. This should be done
at the latest when the indicator light
comes on.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
The washing machine has 2 filters to
protect the inlet valve. Check these
filters every 6 months or so. Perform
this check more often if there are
frequent interruptions to the external
water supply.

First turn off the tap.
Unscrew the inlet hose.
Remove the rubber seal 1 from the
recess.
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter bar 2 and remove the
plastic filter.
Clean the filter.
