Care and cleaning
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the water
inlet hose. Clean the
filter using a hard
bristle brush. Tighten
up the inlet hose.
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 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 a 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.
