Cleaning the water inlet filters
The washing machine has two filters to
protect the water inlet valve. These fil‐
ters should be checked every six
months or so, or more often if there are
frequent interruptions to the water sup‐
ply.
To clean the filter in the union in the
open end of the inlet hose:
First turn off the stopcock.
Unscrew the inlet hose from the stop‐
cock.
Remove the rubber seal 1 from the
recess.
Using pointed pliers, take hold of the
plastic filter bar 2 and remove it.
Clean the filter.
Replace the filter and seal back in the
reverse order and reconnect the
hose.
Cleaning and care
To clean the filter in the water inlet
valve:
Using pliers, carefully loosen the rib‐
bed plastic nut on the inlet valve and
unscrew.
Use pointed nose pliers to withdraw
the plastic filter by the bar (see illus‐
tration).
Clean the filter.
Replace the filter in the reverse order.
After cleaning the filters, turn on the
stopcock and check the connection
is watertight. If water drips out, tight‐
en the connection.
The two filters must be put back in
place after cleaning.
