Cleaning the filters in the water
inlet
For the protection of the inlet valve,
filters are incorporated in the screw
connection of the water inlet hose. The
filters must be cleaned when dirty,
otherwise insufficient water flows into
the wash cabinet.
The plastic housing of the water con-
nection contains an electrical compo-
nent. It must not be immersed in water.
To clean the filters
Disconnect the machine from the
mains supply (switch off at the main
socket and pull out the plug, switch
off the appropriate circuit at the fuse
box or switch off the mains fuse).
Turn off the stopcock and unscrew
the water inlet hose.
Clean the large area filter (1) and the
fine filter (2) or replace if necessary.
Replace filter and seal. Make sure
they are sitting correctly.
Screw back into place on the water
inlet, taking care that the connection
goes back on straight.
Open the stopcock carefully. If there
is a leak, screw the connections on
more tightly.
Cleaning the fascia panel
This should only be cleaned with a
damp cloth or a suitable cleaner for
use on plastic materials, or with a dis-
infectant tested and recognised as
suitable for this use.
Do not use an abrasive cleaner, a
glass cleaner or an all-purpose
cleaner. Because of their chemical
composition they could cause
serious damage to plastic surfaces.
Cleaning the front of the
machine
Clean using a suitable proprietary
cleaning agent.
Do not use any cleaner containing
ammonia or thinners.
