Only take note of this page if the lower part of your washing machine is like that shown in Figure 1. Draining Residual Water
Residual water should be removed � before transporting the washing machine (moving), � when installing in areas where there is a danger of frost and � before removing the filter. 1. Switch the washing machine off and pull out the plug before draining the residual water. Ensure that the water has cooled down before letting it drain. 2. Turn the slot by 180°, so that the dot points to the open lock. You can use the insert on the detergent dispenser or a coin to do this. The cover slopes down to the floor. 3. Remove the hose, place a flat container underneath and pull the cap off the hose. 4. Allow the residual water to drain out until no more water flows. Then close off the residual water drain hose. 5. Lay the hose in the cover, as shown in Figure 1, fold the cover up and close it using the detergent dispenser insert or a coin. The dot points to the closed lock. 6. Pour about 1 l of water into the detergent dispenser to reactivate the Eco System. You must also put the plug back into the socket. 7. You can now load the washing machine and start the desired programme. The filter must be taken out � if the washing machine does not drain properly � if small items e. g. buttons and coins rattle in the pump and � 2 to 3 times a year for inspection. You must remove the residual water before taking out the filter. Carry out the steps in the Draining Residual Water section, but only up to point 4. Then follow the points given below. 1. Open the filter but do not withdraw it completely. Slowly turn the handle anticlockwise until the water drains out. Make sure that the water has cooled before letting it drain. 2. Wait until all the water has drained out. 3. Now unscrew the filter completely and extract it. 4. Clean the filter and the filter chamber. 5. Check that the pump impeller can still rotate. 6. Insert the filter with the guide pin upwards and screw it in clockwise. 7. Lay the hose in the cover, as shown in Figure 1, fold the cover up and close it using the detergent dispenser insert or a coin. The dot points to the closed lock. 8. Pour about 1 l of water into the detergent dispenser to reactivate the Eco System. You must also put the plug back into the socket. 9. You can now load the washing machine and start the desired programme.
