WHEN SHOULD THE FOREIGN BODY
TRAP BE EMPTIED?
The appliance is provided with a self-cleaning
pump. The foreign body trap keeps objects like
buttons, coins, safety pins, etc. which have been
left in the laundry.
• Check the foreign body trap if the appliance
is not draining properly or if it fails to perform
spin cycles.
• Check the foreign body trap regularly, two or
three times a year and clean it if necessary.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the water has cooled
before draining.
REMOVING THE FOREIGN BODY TRAP
1. Unplug the appliance.
2. Open the foreign body trap cover with a coin.
3. Place a bowl beneath it.
4. Turn the foreign body trap slowly
anti-clockwise until the grip is vertical;
do not remove it as yet.
5. Wait until all the water has drained out.
6. Now unscrew the foreign body trap
completely and extract it.
7. Remove any foreign items from the foreign
body trap.
8. Make sure the pump impeller (in the housing
behind the foreign body trap) is not
obstructed.
9. Insert the foreign body trap and screw it fully
down in a clockwise direction (until the grip is
horizontal).
10. Pour 0.5 litres of water into the machine via
the drum and check that water does not leak
from the foreign body trap.
11. Close the cover.
12. Plug in the appliance to the electrical outlet.
WHEN SHOULD THE RESIDUAL WATER
BE DRAINED?
• Before transporting the machine.
• If the appliance is installed in a room subject to
sub-zero temperatures. It is advisable to drain
residual water from the machine, the drain
hose and the inlet hose after each wash cycle.
DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Unplug the machine from the mains.
3. Close the tap(s), loosen the inlet hose(s)
from the machine and let the water drain out.
4. Remove the foreign body trap, let the water
drain out and close it again.
5. Open the clip for the drain hose fixation on
the rear part of the machine (see B in figure).
6. Lower the drain hose into a bowl and let the
water drain.
7. Wait until the flow stops.
8. Fix the drain hose again to the clip.
9. Plug in the appliance to the electrical outlet.
Important:
• Before using the machine again, pour about
1 litre of water into the drum to reactivate the
“Eco system”.
• Before starting a new wash cycle screw the
inlet hose(s) to the machine by hand. Check
water-tightness of washing machine
connections by turning the tap(s) completely
on.
