! The appliance has a special filter that
traps larger residues that could block the
draining system, such as buttons or coins
(depending on the model, consider
version A or B).
We recommend checking and cleaning
the filter 5 or 6 times a year.
! Disconnect the machine from the power
supply.
! Ensure all the water has been emptied
from the drum.
! Before unscrewing the filter, we
recommend you place an absorbent cloth
under it to keep the floor dry. A small
amount of water will come out of the filter
as you remove it - this is normal.
! Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the
limit stop.
! Remove and clean the filter; when
finished, replace it turning it clockwise.
The filter handle will be locked when it is
not possible to turn any further and the
handle is horizontal. Smearing a small
amount of liquid soap on the filter seal will
help refitting.
! Repeat the previous steps in reverse
order to reassemble all parts.
! If the appliance is kept in a non-heated
room for long periods of time, all water
residues must be completely removed
from the pipes.
! Disconnect the machine from the power
supply socket.
! Detach the tube from the drainage system
and clip on the rear of the machine and
lower it, fully draining water into a bowl.
! Secure the drain tube with the drainage
system and clip on the rear of the
machine when finished.
! Keep the door glass and gasket clean.
FOR MODELS WITH AUTOMATIC
