We recommend that you check and clean the filter

regularly, at least two or three times a year, especially:

• If the “Clean pump” indication lights up:

• If the appliance is not draining properly or if it fails to

perform spin cycles.

If the washing machine stands in a room prone to frost, you

have to drain residual water after each wash to avoid damages.

IMPORTANT: make sure the water has cooled

before draining the appliance.

1. Stop the appliance and unplug it.

2. To open the plinth (depending on the model):

- Push down the tabs right and left (if available) to

release the plinth and remove it (picture “A”).

- Remove the plinth by using the siphon of the detergent

dispenser: push downwards one side of the plinth with

your hand, then push the siphon’s nose into the gap

between plinth and front panel and pry open the plinth

(picture “B”).

3. Place a container near the washing machine.

4. If your washing machine has an emergency drain hose:

- Unclip the emergency drain hose, or pull out the

emergency drain hose from the washing machine’s

base (depending on the model).

- If there is no emergency drain hose: place a broad,

flat container beneath the filter (picture “D”). Ignore

steps 5 - 8 and proceed with 9.

5. Hold the emergency hose’s end into the container and

remove the stopper (picture “C”).

6. Wait until all the water has drained, then refix the stopper

at the hose’s end (picture “E”).

7. Refix the emergency drain hose to the clip, or push it

back into the washing machine’s base (depending on

the model).

8. Lay an absorbable cotton cloth (e.g. a towel) on the

floor in front of the filter.

9. Slowly open the filter by turning it counter-clockwise

(picture “F”); wait until all the water has drained, then

unscrew the filter completely and remove it.

10. Tilt the appliance forwards carefully (a second person

must help you) to allow the water to flow out completely.

11. Clean the filter and the filter chamber; check that the

pump rotor in the filter chamber moves freely.

12. Re-insert the filter and screw it in clockwise as far as

it will go.

13. Pour about 1 litre of water into the detergent dispenser

to reactivate the “Eco system”. Check that the filter is

inserted properly and securely and no water comes out.

14. Reinstall the plinth (picture “G”); if necessary, tilt the

washing machine slightly backwards for doing that (a

second person must help you).

15. Plug in the washing machine. It is now ready for

operation again.
