MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The pump lter system in your Washing Machine prolongs the life of the pump by prevent-

months.
The pump lter is located behind the cover on the front-lower right corner. To clean the

To clean the pump lter:
1. You may use the washing powder spade (*) supplied with your machine or liquid detergent level plate
to open the pump cover.
2. Lodge the end of the powder spade or liquid detergent level plate in the opening of the cover and
gently press backwards. The cover will open.
• Before opening the lter cover, place a container under the lter cover to collect any water left in the
machine.
• Loosen the lter by turning anticlockwise and remove by pulling. Wait for the water to drain.
NOTE: Depending on the amount of water inside the machine, you may have to empty the water
collection container a few times.
3. Remove any foreign materials from the lter with a soft brush.
4. After cleaning, re-t the lter by inserting it and turning clockwise.

panel side.

WARNING: The water in the pump may be hot, wait until it has cooled down before carrying out any
cleaning or maintenance.
