REMOVING THE FILTER
We recommend that you check and clean the filter regularly, at least two or three times a year.

Especially:
� When the appliance does not drain or spin properly � If the pump is blocked by a foreign body (e.g. buttons, coins or safety pins) IMPORTANT: make sure the water has had time to cool before draining the appliance. 1. Switch off the appliance and unplug it. 2. Open the filter cover. Open the filter cover with the help of the coloured insert from the detergent container. 3. Place a container beneath it. 4. Open the filter but do not withdraw it completely. Slowly turn the handle anticlockwise until the water drains out. 5. Wait until all the water has drained off. 6. Now unscrew the filter completely and remove it. 7. Clean the filter and the filter chamber. 8. Check that the pump rotor moves freely. 9. Insert the filter with the guide pin upwards and screw it in clockwise to the stop (handle horizontal). 10. Pour about 1 litre of water into the detergent drawer to reactivate the Eco system. Check that the foreign body trap is seated properly and tightly in place. 11. Fold the cover up and lock it. 12. Reinsert the plug in the socket. 13. Select a programme and start it.
