Machine maintenance & cleaning
Removing debris from the drain pump filter
(Recommended to be completed 8 to 10 times a year or when required)
• Do not open the drain pump filter when the machine is in operation.
• When draining the machine and before opening the pump filter check to
make sure the water released is not hot.
• If you open the drain pump filter without draining excess water first, it will
result in water being drained directly from the machine.
• Ensure the drain filter is inserted correctly and closed tightly because if not
it may result in leaking water or machine malfunction.
The pump drain filter collects small items such as coins, screws, pens, nails, hair clips, keys or fabric threads
that have come from your laundry. By keeping this filter clean it can improve and maintain the machines
performance over it’s lifetime.
1. Turn off mains electrical power supply.
2. To remove the front kick plate cover, simply place
your thumbs on either side in the indents provided
and push down.
3. Release the black drain hose and place it over a
container. Unscrew (anti-clockwise) and pull the
grey plug from inside the hose and drain.
4. Once all excess water has drained it is now safe
to
unscrew the pump filter. Be prepared for some
minor water spillage, release the filter by turning it
anti-clockwise and pull it out.
5. Remove all debris from the pump filter and re-
insert it back into the pump, turning it clock-wise
to securely close.
6. Replace the grey tap into the drain hose and clip
the hose to the front plate of the machine using
the clip attached to the plate.
7. Re-install kick plate cover by hooking the bottom
into the 3 slots and pivoting the top into position.
N.B: See manual draining section on page 26 for pictorial guidance

the machine before the next wash.
