Cleaning The Water Inlet Filter - Miele WWV 980 WPS Passion Operating Instructions Manual

Cleaning the water inlet filter

The washing machine has a filter to pro-
tect the water inlet valve. The accessible
filter in the union at the open end of the
inlet hose should be checked every six
months or so, or more often if there are
frequent interruptions to the water sup-
ply.
Cleaning and care
 First turn off the stopcock.
 Unscrew the inlet hose from the stop-
cock.
 Remove the rubber seal 1 from the re-
cess.
 Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter bar 2 and remove it.
Clean the plastic filter.
 Put the filter and seal back in the re-
verse order and reconnect the hose.
Turn on the stopcock and check the
connection is watertight. If water
drips out, tighten the connection.
The filter must be put back in place
after cleaning.
