A clean filter is important for a correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned after
every wash.
Open the filter door and
place a container under-
neath to catch any spill-
age. If the filter is blocked
and the machine is unable
to drain you will need to
drain the water manually
from the machine at this
stage. To do this, unhook
the drain hose from the
standpipe or sink and hold the end of the hose over a
bowl on the floor. The water should drain by gravity
into the bowl. When the bowl is full, hook the hose
back up and empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure
until water stops flowing out.
Pull out the small gutter
located under the filter to
help collecting any resid-
ual water.

When the appliance is in use and depending on the

When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely retight-
ened so as to stop leaks and young children being able
