Maintenance
5. Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged (outlet pump is
blocked, filter or drain hose are clogged),
proceed as follows to empty out the
machine:
• pull out the plug from the power socket;
• close the water tap;
• if necessary, wait until the water has
cooled down;
• place a bowl on the floor;
• put the drain hose end into the bowl and
let the water come out.
Should it not be possible to have access to
the drain hose because, for example, the
appliance is built in the kitchen furniture,
slightly loosen the drain filter after placing a
bowl on the floor, to let the water come out
slowly.
At the end screw the filter again.
6. Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where
the temperature could drop below 0°C,
proceed as follows:
• Close the water tap and unscrew the
water inlet hose from the tap.
• Place the end of the drain hose and that
of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the
floor.
• Select drain programme and run it
until the machine stops.
• Turn the programme selector dial to .
• Depress the ON/OFF button to switch
the machine off.
• Remove the plug from the socket.
• Screw the water inlet hose back on and
put the drain hose back in its place.
By doing this, any water remaining in the
machine is removed, avoiding the formation
of ice and, consequently, breakage of the
affected parts.
When you use the machine again, make
sure that the ambient temperature is above
0°C.
