Electrolux EWG127410W - Manual (Page 17)

Important! Every time you drain the water
through the emergency emptying hose you
must pour 2 litres of water into the main
wash compartment of the detergent drawer and then run the drain programme. This will
activate the ECO Valve device avoiding
that part of the detergent remains unused
at next washing.
WHAT TO DO IF...
Certain problems are due to lack of simple
maintenance or oversights, which can be
solved easily without calling out an engi-
neer. Before contacting your local Service
Centre, please carry out the checks listed
