continue to wash with the water inside.

Cleaning the detergent drawer

Clean the detergent drawer at regular intervals

(every4-5washingcycles)asshownbelow

in order to prevent accumulation of powder

detergent in time.

Press the dotted point on the siphon in the

softener compartment and pull towards you until

the compartment is removed from the machine.

is seated well.

Cleaning the water intake filters

There is a filter at the end of each water intake

valve at the rear of the machine and also at

the end of each water intake hose where they

are connected to the tap. These filters prevent

foreignsubstancesanddirtinthewatertoenter

thewashingmachine.Filtersshouldbecleaned

as they do get dirty.

Close the taps. Remove the nuts of the water

intake hoses to access the filters on the water

intake valves. Clean them with an appropriate

brush.Ifthefiltersaretoodirty,takethemout

bymeansofpliersandcleanthem.Takeoutthe

filters on the flat ends of the water intake hoses

together with the gaskets and clean thoroughly

under running water. Replace the gaskets and

filters carefully in their places and tighten the hose

nutsbyhand.

Draining remaining water and

cleaning the pump filter

The filter system in your machine prevents solid

itemssuchasbuttons,coinsandfabricfibers

clogging the pump impeller during discharge

ofwashingwater.Thus,thewaterwillbe

dischargedwithoutanyproblemandtheservice
