Cleaning the drum, suds con-
tainer and drainage system
The drum, suds container and drainage
system can be cleaned if necessary.
Start the Cottons90°C programme.
Add powder detergent to the
compartment in the detergent
drawer.
At the end of the programme, check
the inner drum and remove any
coarse residues.
Cleaning the water inlet filters
The washing machine has filters to pro-
tect the water intake valves. You should
inspect the filters approximately every
6months. Perform this check more of-
ten if there are frequent interruptions to
the external water supply.
Cleaning the filter in the water intake
valve
Using pliers, carefully loosen the
ribbed plastic nut on the intake valve
and unscrew.
Use pointed pliers to withdraw the fil-
ter by the bar.
Clean the filter.
Reassemble in reverse order.
The filters are used to protect the
water intake valve.
The filters must be put back in place
after cleaning.
