The dangers of freezing

If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.

Turn off the water tap.

Unscrew the inlet hose.

Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
position the end of this hose and that of the inlet
hose in a bowl. Run the draining programme.

Disconnect the appliance.

Screw the inlet hose and reposition the drain hose.

When you intend to start the machine up again,
make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C.

Clean carefully under a fast running tap.

Warning

When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the filter.
Never remove the filter during a wash cycle, always
wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is
empty. When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being
able to remove it.

The water inlet filter

If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet filter may become clogged.

It is therefore a good idea to clean them from time to
time.

Turn off the water tap. Unscrew the water inlet hose.
Remove and clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Replace the filter and tighten up the inlet hose.
