    the siphon must be cleaned.
    2. Wash the dispenser drawer 
    and the siphon with plenty of 
    lukewarm water in a washbasin. 
    Wear protective gloves or use an 
    appropriate brush to avoid touching 
    the residues in the drawer when 
    cleaning.
    3. Replace the drawer into its housing 
    after cleaning.  Check if the siphon 
    is in its original location.
    The door and the drum
    After	each	wash:
    •	 Check	if	there	are	any	foreign	
    substances in the drum.
    •	 Open	the	hole	in	the	bellow	with	the	
    aid of a toothpick if it is clogged.
    C Foreign metal substances in your 
    machine can cause rust stains. In 
    such	cases:
     Clean the drum with a stainless steel 
    cleaning agent. Never use steel wool 
    or wire wool.
    Outer cabinet and control 
    panel
    When	necessary:
    •	 Wipe	the	exterior	panels	of	your	
    machine with soapy water or mild 
    detergent. Dry it with a soft cloth.
    •	 Use	only	a	soft	and	damp	cloth	to	
    clean the control panel.
    C Never use a sponge or scrubbing 
    material. These will damage the 
    painted and plastic parts.
    Inlet water filters
    There is a filter at the end of each 
    water intake valve at the back side of 
    the machine and also at the end of 
    each water intake hose where they 
    are connected to the tap. These filters 
    prevent the foreign substances and dirt 
    in the water to enter into the machine. 
    Filters should be cleaned as they get 
    dirty.
    •	 Close	the	taps.
    7  Cleaning and care 
    						
    							EN24
    •	 Remove	the	nuts	of	the	water	intake	
    hoses to clean the surfaces of the 
    filters on the water intake valves with 
    an appropriate brush.
    •	 If	the	filters	are	very	dirty,	you	can	
    pull them out by means of pliers and 
    clean them.
    •	 Take	out	the	filters	on	the	flat	
    ends of the water intake hoses 
    together with the gaskets and clean 
    thoroughly under streaming water.
    •	 Replace	the	gaskets	and	filters	
    carefully and tighten the hose nuts 
    by hand.
    Draining any remaining water 
    and cleaning the pump filter
    Filter system in your machine prevents 
    solid items such as buttons, coins and 
    fabric fibers clogging the pump propeller 
    during discharging of the washing 
    water. Thus, a good water discharger is 
    achieved and the pump life is extended.
    •		 If	your	machine	fails	to	drain	the	
    water, the pump filter may be 
    clogged.	You	may	have	to	clean	
    it every 2 years or whenever it is 
    blocked plugged. Water must be 
    drained off to clean the pump filter. 
    In addition, water may have to be 
    drained off completely in the following 
    cases:
    •		 before	transporting	the	machine	
    (e.g.	when	moving	house)
    •		 when	there	is	the	danger	of	frost
    In order to clean the dirty filter and 
    discharge	the	water;
    1- Disconnect or unplug the machine 
    from the power supply.
    A There may be water at 90°C in the 
    machine. Therefore, the filter must 
    be cleaned only after the inside 
    water is cooled down to avoid 
    hazard of scalding.
    2-	Open	the	filter	cap.	The	filter	cap	
    may be composed of one or two pieces 
    according to the model of your machine.
    If it is composed of two pieces, press 
    the tab on the filter cap downwards and 
    pull the piece out towards yourself.
    If it is composed of one piece, hold it 
    from both sides and open it by pulling 
    out.
    3- An emergency drain hose is supplied 
    with	some	of	our	models.	Others	are	not	
    supplied with this item.
    If your product is supplied with an 
    emergency drain hose, do the following 
    as	shown	in	the	figure	below:
    •		 Pull	out	the	pump	outlet	hose	from	
    its housing.
    •		 Place	a	large	container	at	the	end	of	
    the hose. Drain the water off into the 
    container by pulling out the plug at 
    the end of the hose. If the amount 
    of water to be drained off is greater 
    than the volume of the container, 
    replace the plug, pour the water out, 
    then resume the draining process.
    •		 After	draining	process	is	completed,	
    replace the plug into the end of the 
    hose and fit the hose back into its  
    						
    							EN25
    place.
    If your product is not supplied with an 
    emergency drain hose, do the following 
    as	shown	in	the	figure	below:
    •		 Place	a	large	container	in	front	of	the	
    filter to receive water flowing from 
    the filter.
    •		 Loosen	pump	filter	(anticlockwise)	
    until water starts to flow out of it. 
    Direct the flowing water into the 
    container you have placed in front 
    of	the	filter.	You	can	use	a	piece	of	
    cloth to absorb any spilled water.
    •		 When	there	is	no	water	left,	turn	the	
    pump filter until it is completely loose 
    and remove it.
    •		 Clean	any	residues	inside	the	filter	
    as well as fibers, if any, around the 
    propeller region.
    •		 If	your	product	has	a	water	jet	
    feature, be sure to fit the filter into 
    its housing in the pump. Never force 
    the filter while replacing it into its 
    housing. Fit the filter fully into its 
    housing;	otherwise,	water	may	leak	
    from the filter cap.
    4- Close the filter cap.
    Close the two-piece filter cap of your 
    product by pushing the tab on it.
    Close the one-piece filter cap of your 
    product by fitting the tabs on the bottom 
    into their positions and pushing the 
    upper part of it.
