CLEANING AND CARE

Caution!
• When cleaning, never use solvents or abrasive materials, hard brushes, metallic or sharp objects.
Solvents are harmful to human health and can attack plastic parts, while abrasive cleaning
mechanisms and tools may scratch the surface(s).
• Switch off the washing machine and let it cool down completely before cleaning.
• Clean the exterior surfaces of the product with a slightly damp cloth and dry them well. Make sure
that no water enters the product interior (e.g. at the switches).

Clean the filter of the lye pump
Fig. 11
Caution!
• Never operate the washing machine without a filter.
• The filter of the lye pump prevents foreign objects from affecting the pumping system.
• Clean or check the filter regularly depending on the frequency of use, approximately once
a month.
• Check the filter if the water is not pumped out or if the noise is increased during pumping.
• Before opening the service flap, place a big cloth in front and below the flap. Large
amounts of water may leak when removing the filter.
• Make sure that all water has been pumped out during the previous wash cycle and then turn off the
power and unplug the power cord.
• Open the maintenance flap by inserting a coin or screwdriver tip into the slot.
• Place a collecting tray in front of it to catch any leaking water. Pull off the hose, remove the plug and
drain all water into a collecting tray. Insert the plug into the hose and push the hose back into the clip.
• Turn the filter cover to the left. Catch leaking water!
• Clean the filter under running water.
• Insert the filter and turn it to the right. Make sure that the filter is properly fixed so that no water can
leak.
• Close the maintenance flap.
