Cleaning and maintenance
IMPORTANT: make sure that the water has cooled before
draining the washing machine.
1. Switch off the appliance and unplug it.
2. Insert a tool, such as a flathead screwdriver, into the small
slot in the bottom of the separator and push in gently, but with
enough pressure to open it.
3. Place a container under the filter opening and empty it using the
emergency drain hose (see the section on Draining the waste
water for specific procedures). Rotate the filter anticlockwise,
then unscrew it fully and remove it.
4. Clean the filter and the filter chamber.
5. Check that the pump rotor turns freely.
6. Refit the filter by re-inserting it and rotating it clockwise until
it does not rotate any further.
7. Refit the cover.
