Cleaning the pump filter
The pump filter system lengthens the life of your pump, which is used to drain the dirty water. It prevents dirt entering the pump. Cleaning of your pump filter every 2-3 months is recommended.
The pump filter should be checked if the washing machine does not empty or spin, or makes unusual noises during draining.
WARNING: Never remove the filter during a wash programme, always wait until the programme has finished and the laundry has been removed.
