5 Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product extends and
frequently faced problems decrease if cleaned
at regular intervals.
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.
If more than normal amount of water and
C
softener mixture starts to gather in the
softener compartment, the siphon must
be cleaned.
Wash the detergent drawer and the siphon
with plenty of lukewarm water in a washbasin.
Wear protective gloves or use an appropriate
brush to avoid touching of the residues in the
drawer with your skin when cleaning. Insert the
drawer back into its place after cleaning and
make sure that it 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 life of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, 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 machine
(eg., when moving to another house) and in
case of freezing of the water, water may have
to be drained completely.
Foreign substances left in the pump filter
A
may damage your machine or may cause
noise problem.
