7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
7.1. Warning
Turn your mains power supply off and remove the plug from the socket before carrying out maintenance and cleaning of your machine.
Turn off the water supply before starting maintenance and cleaning of your machine.
CAUTION: Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-purpose cleaning agents to clean your Washing Machine. They may damage the plastic surfaces and other components with the chemicals they contain.
7.2. Water Inlet Filters
Water inlet filters prevent dirt and foreign materials from entering your machine. We recommend that these filters are cleaned when your machine is unable to receive sufficient water, although your water supply is on and the tap is open. We recommend that you clean your water inlet filters every 2 months.
• Unscrew the water inlet hose(s) from the Washing Machine.
• To remove the water inlet filter from the water inlet valve, use a pair of long­nosed pliers to gently pull on the plastic bar in the filter.
• A second water inlet filter is located in the tap end of the water inlet hose. To remove the second water inlet filter, use a pair of long-nosed pliers to gently pull on the plastic bar in the filter.
• Clean the filter thoroughly with a soft brush and wash with soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Re-insert the filter by gently pushing it back into place.
CAUTION: The filters at the water inlet valve may become clogged due to water quality or lack of required maintenance and may break down. This may cause a water leak. Any such breakdowns are out of the scope of the warranty.

1. You may use the washing powder spade (*) supplied with your machine or liquid detergent level plate to open the pump cover.
2. Lodge the end of the powder spade or liquid detergent level plate in the opening of the cover and gently press backwards. The cover will open.
• Before opening the filter cover, place a container under the filter cover to collect any water left in the machine.
• Loosen the filter by turning anticlockwise and remove by pulling. Wait for the water to drain.
NOTE: Depending on the amount of water inside the machine, you may have to empty the water collection container a few times.
3. Remove any foreign materials from the
filter with a soft brush.
4. After cleaning, re-fit the filter by inserting
it and turning clockwise.

1. Flush stopper
Remove the detergent drawer and disassemble the flush stopper. Clean thoroughly to completely remove any softener residue. Refit the flush stopper after cleaning and check that it is seated properly.
2 3
2. Body
Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent, or soap and water, to clean the external casing. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
3. Drum
Do not leave metallic objects such as needles, paper clips, coins etc. in your machine. These objects lead to the formation of rust stains in the drum.
