Cleaning the body
and control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with
soapy water or non-corrosive mild gel
detergents as necessary, and dry with a
soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean
the control panel.
A
Never use sponge or scrub
materials. These will damage the
painted and plastic surfaces.
Cleaning the water
intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water
intake valve at the rear of the machine
and also at the end of each water
intake hose where they are connected
to the tap. These filters prevent foreign
substances and dirt in the water to enter
the washing machine. Filters should be
cleaned as they do get dirty.
1. Close the taps.
2. Remove the nuts of the water intake
hoses to access the filters on the
water intake valves. Clean them
with an appropriate brush. If the
filters are too dirty, take them out by
means of pliers and clean them.
3. Take out the filters on the flat
ends of the water intake hoses
together with the gaskets and clean
thoroughly under running water.
4. Replace the gaskets and filters
carefully in their places and tighten
the hose nuts by hand.
Draining remaining water
and cleaning the pump filter
The filter system in your machine
prevents solid items such as buttons,
coins and fabric fibers clogging the
pump impeller during discharge of
washing water. Thus, the water will be
discharged without any problem and the
service life of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the
pump filter is clogged. Filter must be
cleaned whenever it is clogged or in
every 3 months. Water must be drained
off first to clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the
machine (eg., when moving to another
house) and in case of freezing of the
water, water may have to be drained
completely.
A
Foreign substances left in the pump
filter may damage your machine or
may cause noise problem.
In order to clean the dirty filter and
discharge the water:
1. Unplug the machine to cut off the
supply power.
A
Temperature of the water inside
the machine may rise up to 90 ºC.
To avoid burning risk, filter must
be cleaned after the water in the
machine cools down.
2. Open the filter cap.
If the filter cap is composed of two
pieces, press the tab on the filter
cap downwards and pull the piece
out towards yourself.
