Cleaning and maintenance
• Put the cap back on the emergency
emptying hose and place the latter back in
its seat.
• Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme
selected there can be hot water in the pump circuit. Never remove the
pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has
finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the pump cover, after
a cleaning inspection, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop
leaks and young children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filter
If your water is very hard or contains
traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filter
may become clogged.
It is therefore a good idea to clean it from
time to time.
Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water
inlet hose. Clean the filter using a hard
bristle brush.
Tighten up the inlet hose.
