Cleaning the drum and the door
z
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe the door, cleaning any water marks or residue off it.
z
Wipe the rubber seal around the door. Remove any items or lint accumulating in the
bottom of the seal catchment and wipe out any water accumulated here. If this is not
cleaned out, unpleasant odours will develop.
z
If the drum has any residual dirt or lint stuck to it, remove this and wipe the drum clean.
Do not leave any metal objects in the drum as these may rust and cause staining.
z
WH8560F and WH8060F models also have a self cleaning door flush that directs a
portion of the rinse water over the door during various stages of the cycle to help
to clean hair and insolubles from the inside of the door and surrounding parts. We
still recommend that you manually clean it with a soft cloth periodically as per the
instructions above.
Cleaning the pump filter
The pump has a filter to trap foreign objects that enter the
washer along with clothing. The pump filter can be accessed
from the front of the washer.
To clean the filter:
This should be cleaned out approximately once a month.
1 Turn the power off and unplug the machine.
2 Use a coin to open the filter cover. Place the edge of the coin
into the slot and tilt upwards whilst levering the cover open.
3 Unhook the pump outlet hose and pull it out (about 150mm).
Remove the plug and allow any water (approximately 250ml)
to drain into a shallow dish.
4 After the draining process is complete, replace the plug
intothe hose and refit the hose back into the housing.
5 Remove the filter by turning anti-clockwise. Clean and
rinseunder a tap. Check the pump filter cavity for any
further obstruction.
6 Replace the filter by turning clockwise until the white mark
on the filter is in line with the white line on the pump housing.
