Maintenance and cleaning After every washing make sure that no foreign substance is left in the drum. 7.4 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. If the holes on the bellow shown in the figure are blocked, open the holes using a toothpick. C Foreign metal substances will cause rust stains in the drum. Clean the stains on the drum surface by using cleaning agents for stainless steel. Never use steel wool or wire wool. A warning: Never use sponge or scrub materials. These will damage the painted and plastic surfaces. 7.3 Cleaning the body and control panel Wipe the body of the machine with soapy water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents as necessary, and dry with a soft cloth. Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control panel. 1. Close the taps. 2. 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. 3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of the water intake hoses together with the gaskets and clean thoroughly under running water. 4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully in their places and tighten the hose nuts by hand. Washing Machine / User's Manual 31 / EN
