The dangers of freezing
If the machine is exposed to
temperatures below 0°C, certain
precautions should be taken:
• pull out the plug from the power
socket;
• turn off the water tap.
• unscrew the inlet hose.
• place a bowl with a small edge close
to the pump to collect any spillage
from the emergency emptying hose.
Place the end of the inlet hose in a
bowl placed on the floor and let
water drain out.
• screw the water inlet hose back on
and reposition the emergency
emptying cap on again into the filter
cover.
• when you intend to start the machine
up again, make sure that the room
temperature is above 0°C.

Important!
Every time you drain the water through
the emergency emptying hose you must
pour 2 litres of water into the main wash
compartment of the detergent drawer
and then run the drain programme. This
will activate the ECO VALVE device
avoiding that part of the detergent
remains unused at next washing.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed
as follows to empty out the machine:
• pull out the plug from the power
socket;
• close the water tap;
• if necessary, wait until the water has
cooled down;
• open the pump door using the
suitable tool;
• place a bowl with a small edge close
to the pump to collect any spillage.
Remove the emergency emptying
cap from the filter cover. The water
should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap
back on filter cover. Empty the bowl.
Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;
• clean the pump if necessary as
previously described;
• replace the filter into the pump and
screw it firmly as previously
described;
• replace the emergency emptying cap
into the filter cover and close the
pump door.
