Part 5:
Care and maintenance
Water intake filter
Detergent dispenser
At the end of the water intake connection module and water inlet
hose-tap side, there exists filters. These filters prevent any dirt
and objects passing into the machine. It is advisable that these
filters should be cleaned every 30-40 washes. To clean the filter,
first turn the tap off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with thin brush. If the filter is very dirty, you may clean it
by pulling out with pliers. To clean the filter at the tap side of the
hose, pull it out by hand and clean the filter under the tap water.
To clean the detergent residues, remove the detergent dispenser
from its place by pressing on the area marked on siphon. Wash the
dispenser with water and also clean the dispencer housing before
inserting the dispenser to its place.
Hose
To prevent any leakage, have a technician to control the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed at cold ambient
temperatures, the water remaining inside the pump and hoses
should be removed from the filters. Also to prevent freezing,
empty the water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Siphon
Clean the siphon (coloured piece in the dispenser) every 30-40
washes. Pull out the siphon by holding from its edges. To prevent
clogging, clean the softener residues thoroughly and make sure that
the siphon fits into its place completely before any operation.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins,needles,etc.)inside the
drum. These objects may cause rust on the drum surface. Do not
clean the drum with scratching elements.
