7.2 Cleaning the Loading Door and
the Drum
For products with drum cleaning pro-
gramme, please see the Operating the
product section.
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in
every 2 months.
NOTICE: Use an anti-limescale suit-
able for the washing machines.
After every washing make sure that no for-
eign substance is left in the product.
If the holes on the door gasket shown in the
figure is blocked, open the holes using a
toothpick.
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. These
will damage the painted, chrome coated
and plastic surfaces.
We recommend you to wipe the door gas-
ket with a dry and clean cloth at the end of
the programme. This will remove residues
on the door gasket in your machine and
prevent formation of malodours.
7.3 Cleaning the Body and Control
Panel
Wipe the body of the product 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. Do not use cleaning products
that contain bleach
7.4 Cleaning the Water Intake Fil-
ters
There is a filter at the end of each water in-
take valve at the rear of the product 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 product. Filters
should be cleaned if they are dirty.
1. Close the taps.
2. Remove the nuts of the water intake
hoses to access the filters on the water
intake valves and clean them with an ap-
propriate brush. If the filters are too
dirty, remove them from their places
with a pliers and clean in this way.
3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of
the water intake hoses together with the
gaskets and clean thoroughly under run-
ning water.
4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully
and tighten their nuts by hand.
7.5 Draining Remaining Water and
Cleaning the Pump Filter
The filter system in your product prevents
solid items such as buttons, coins and fab-
ric fibres clogging the pump impeller during
draining of washing water. Thus, the water
will be drained without any problem and the
service life of the pump will extend.
If the product fails to drain water inside it,
the pump filter is clogged. Filter must be
cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 3
months. Water must be drained off first to
clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the product
(e.g., when moving to another house) water
should be drained completely.
