CLEANING THE WATER INLET
FILTERS
Important! If the appliance doesn't fill, it
takes a long time to fill with water, the
starting button flashes red or the display (if
available) shows the relevant alarm (see
chapter "What to do if..." for more details),
check if the water inlet filters are blocked .
To clean the water inlet filters:
• Turn off the water tap.
• Unscrew the hose from the tap.
• Clean the filter in the hose with a stiff
brush.
• Screw the hose back onto the tap. Make
sure the connection is tight.
• Unscrew the hose from the appliance.
Keep a towel nearby because some wa-
ter may flow.
• Clean the filter in the valve with a stiff
brush or with the piece of cloth.
• Screw the hose back to the appliance
and make sure the connection is tight.
• Turn on the water tap.
WHAT TO DO IF…
The appliance does not start or stops dur-
ing operation. Certain problems are due to
lack of simple maintenance or oversights,
which can be solved with the help of the in-
dications described in the charts, without
calling out an engineer.
During appliance operation it is possible
that the red pilot light of the button 6 flash-
es and one of the indicator pilot lights illumi-
nates to indicate that the appliance is not
working.
Before contacting your local Service Cen-
tre, please carry out the checks listed be-
low.
