CLEANING THE WATER FILTER / DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER
Switch o and unplug the washing machine before cleaning
the water lter or draining residual water. If you used a hot
wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down before
draining any water.
Clean the water lter regularly, to avoid that the water cannot
drain after the wash due to obstruction of the lter.
If the water cannot drain, the display indicates that the water
lter may be clogged.
1. Remove the kick panel:
using a screwdriver, do that which is shown in the following
gure.
2. Container for the drained water:
place a low and wide container under the water lter in
order to collect the residual water.
3. Drain the water:
slowly turn the lter counter-clockwise until all the water
has come out. Allow the water to ow out without removing
the lter. Once the container is full, close the water lter by
turning it clockwise. Empty the container.
Repeat the procedure until all the water has been drained.
4. Remove lter:
lay a cotton cloth beneath the water lter, which can absorb
a small amount of rest water. Then remove the water lter
by turning it out anticlockwise.
5. Clean the water lter:
remove residues in the lter and clean it under running
water.
6. Insert the water lter and reinstall the plinth:
reinsert the water lter again by turning it in clockwise
direction. Make sure to turn it in as far as it goes; the lter
handle must be in vertical position. To test water tightness
of the water lter, you can pour about 1 liter of water into
the detergent dispenser.
Then reinstall the plinth.
