Draining Remaining Water and Cleaning the Pump Filter
Foreign substances left in the pump filter may damage your machine or may cause noise problem.
If the product is not being used, shut the tap shut, remove mains pipe
and drain the water inside the machine against any likely freezing.
After each use, turn off the water tap to which the mains hose is connected.
In order to clean the dirty filter and discharge the water:
1. Unplug the machine to cut off the supply power.
Temperature of the water inside the machine may rise up to 90ºC.
To avoid the burning risk, clean the filter after the water inside the machine is cooled down.
2. Open the filter cover.
3. Follow the below procedures in order to drain water.
The product does not have an emergency water drain hose, in order to drain the water:
a) In order to collect the water to flow out of the filter, place a large vessel in front of the filter.
b) Turn and loosen the pump filter until water starts to flow (counter clockwise). Fill the flowing
water into the container you have placed in front of the filter. Always keep a piece of cloth
handy to absorb any spilled water.
c) When the water inside the machine is finished, take out the filter completely by turning it.
4. Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibres, if any, around the pump impeller region.
5. Replace the filter.
6. If the filter cap is composed of two pieces, close the filter cap by pressing on the tab. If it is one
piece, seat the tabs in the lower part into their places first, and then press the upper part to close.
