Caution! When the appliance is in use
and depending on the programme
selected there can be hot water in the pump.
Never remove the pump cover during a wash
cycle, always wait until the appliance has
finished the cycle, and is empty. When refitting
the pump cover, ensure it is securely re-
tightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filters
Important! If the appliance doesn't fill, takes
long to fill with water, the starting button blinks
yellow 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:
• Screw the hose back onto the tap. Make
sure the connection is tight.
• Unscrew the hose from the machine. Keep
a rag nearby because some water may
flow.
• Clean the filter in the valve with a stiff
brush or with the piece of cloth.

Frost precaution
If the machine is exposed to temperatures be-
low 0°C, certain precautions should be taken.
• Turn off the water tap.
• Unscrew the inlet hose.
• Place the end of the emergency emptying
hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl
placed on the floor and let water drain out.
• Screw the water inlet hose back on and re-
position the emergency emptying hose after
having put the cap on again.
• When you intend to start the machine up
again, make sure that the room temperature
is above 0°C.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as fol-
lows 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;
• place a bowl on the floor and place the end
of the emergency emptying hose into the
bowl. Remove its cap. The water should
drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl
is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty
the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water
stops flowing out;
• clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
• replace the emergency emptying hose in its
seat after having plugged it;
