l
The appliance has a special filter that
traps larger residues that could block the
draining system, such as buttons or coins
(depending on the model, consider
version
A
or
B
).
We recommend checking and cleaning
the filter 5 or 6 times a year.
l
Disconnect the machine from the power
supply.
l
Ensure all the water has been emptied
from the drum.
l
Before
unscrewing
the
filter,
we
recommend you place an absorbent cloth
under it to keep the floor dry. A small
amount of water will come out of the filter
as you remove it - this is normal.
l
Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the
limit stop.
l
Remove and clean the filter; when
finished, replace it turning it clockwise.
The filter handle will be locked when it is
not possible to turn any further and the
handle is horizontal. Smearing a small
amount of liquid soap on the filter seal will
help refitting.
l
Repeat the previous steps in reverse
order to reassemble all parts.

l
If the appliance is kept in a non-heated
room for long periods of time, all water
residues must be completely removed
from the pipes.
l
Disconnect the machine from the power
supply socket.
l
Detach the tube from the drainage system
and clip on the rear of the machine and
lower it, fully draining water into a bowl.
l
Secure the drain tube with the drainage
system and clip on the rear of the
machine when finished.
l
Keep the door glass and gasket clean.
