CLEANING THE WATER FILTER / DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER

Switch off and unplug the washing machine before cleaning the water filter or draining residual water. If you used
a hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down before draining any water.
Clean the water filter regularly, to avoid that the water cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the filter.
If the water cannot drain, the display indicates that that the water filter may be clogged.
