Cleaning the water inlet filter
If you notice that the machine is taking longer
to fill, check that the filter in the water inlet
hose is not blocked.
1. Turn off the water tap.
2. Unscrew the hose from the tap.
3. Clean the filter in the hose with a stiff
brush.
4. Screw the hose back onto the tap.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as
follows to empty out the machine:
1. pull out the plug from the power socket;
2. close the water tap;
3. if necessary, wait until the water has
cooled down;
4. open the pump door;
5. place a bowl on the floor and place the
end of the emergency emptying hose into
the bowl. Remove its cap. The water
should drain by gravity into the bowl.
When the bowl is full, put the cap back
on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the
procedure until water stops flowing out;
6. clean the pump if necessary as previously
described;
7. replace the emergency emptying hose in
its seat after having plugged it;
8. screw the pump again and close the
door.
Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the
temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed
as follows:
1. Turn off the water tap.
2. Unscrew the inlet hose.
3. Place the end of the emergency emptying
hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl
placed on the floor and let water drain
out.
4. Screw the water inlet hose back on and
reposition the emergency emptying hose
after having put the cap on again.
5. When you intend to start the machine up
again, make sure that the room temper-
ature is above 0°C.
What to do if…
Certain problems are due to lack of simple
maintenance or oversights, which can be
solved easily without calling out an engineer.
Before contacting your local Service Centre,
please carry out the checks listed below.
During machine operation it is possible that
the red pilot light of button 8 blinks, one of
the following alarm codes appears on the

ery 20 seconds to indicate that the machine
is not working: • : problem with the water supply.
• : problem with the water draining.

Once the problem has been eliminated,
press the button 8 to restart the programme.
If after all checks, the problem persists, con-
tact your local Service Centre.
