Drain Filter; Emergency Emptying Out; The Dangers Of Freezing - Zanussi FLS 1002 V Instruction Booklet

4. Drain filter

The drain filter collects threads and small objects
inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that the
filter is clean.
Open the filter door.
Place a container under the filter and unscrew it.
Pull out the filter.
Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it,
screwing it fully in.

5. Emergency emptying out

If the water is not discharged (drain pump is blocked,
filter or drain hose are clogged), proceed as follows to
empty out the machine:
pull out the plug from the power socket;
close the water tap;
if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down;
place a bowl on the floor;
put the drain hose end into the bowl and let the water
come out.
Should it not be possible to have access to the drain
hose because, for example, the appliance is built in the
kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the drain filter after
placing a bowl on the floor, to let the water come out
slowly.
At the end screw the filter again.

6. The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the inlet hose.
Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet
hose in a bowl. Run the draining programme until
the selector dial is in the "Stop" position.
Switch the machine off.
Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain hose.
When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.
