The drain filter

The machine has got a mecanic filter located on the front
part to collect lint and small objects (toothpins, coins,
pins, etc.) inadvertently left in the clothes. It is essential
that the filter is cleaned regularly.
Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of articles
washed (cleaning should be more frequent if the articles
have no hem and tend to fray).
- Open the flapdoor (fig. 6).
- To drain the residual water :
Place below a container not very high up with straight
edges. To complete the draining, turn the cap of the
drain filter until its vertical position and the residual
water will be released (fig. 7).
- To clean the filter :
Turn the filter anticlockwise and get it away (fig. 8).
Clean it with current water. Replace the filter and
screw down it clockwise. Then, close the flapdoor.
