Removing the packaging and check • After unpacking, make sure that the washing machine is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the washing machine. Contact After-Sales Service or your local retailer. • Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc. ) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous. [. . . ] 2. Select the new programme, options and spin speed. The new programme resumes the wash programme at the same stage at which the preceding one was interrupted. For this programme do not add any further detergent. Changing programme and options Programme interruption or pause To interrupt the running programme for a certain period and continue it at a later time: 1. Press the “Start/Pause” button. 2. Following the desired pause press the “Start/Pause” button once again. Cancelling the programme If the current programme is to be terminated prematurely and cancelled, the water must be pumped out first before the door can be opened: 1. Set the programme selector to programme setting “Drain”. The indicator (if available) above the “Start/Pause” button flashes. The spin indicator shows “0” and the remaining time indicator shows “0:02” minutes. 2. Press the “Start/Pause” button in order to start the “Drain” programme. 10 Black Process Plate 3gb05012. fm5 Page 11 Thursday, March 1, 2001 10:45 AM REMOVING THE FILTER 1. Remove the coloured insert from the detergent dispenser and use it to open the filter cover. Turn the filter slowly anti-clockwise until the grip is vertical; do not extract filter as yet. Wait until all the water has drained out. Now unscrew the filter completely and extract it. Remove any foreign material from the filter. Make sure the pump impeller is not obstructed. Insert the filter and screw it fully down in a clockwise direction (until the grip is horizontal). 11. Pour 0. 5 l of water into the detergent dispenser to reactivate the “Eco System”. 12. Connect the appliance to the electrical socket. 13. Select a programme and start it. Check the filter two or three times a year and clean it if necessary. • Check the filter if the appliance is not draining properly or if it fails to perform spin cycles. • Remove the filter if the pump is blocked by an object (buttons, coins, safety pins, etc. ). IMPORTANT: Make sure the water has had time to cool before draining the appliance. DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER • Drain the residual water as described in the “Removing the Filter” chapter (points 1 to 8). • To drain the residual water from the pump, bend the machine frontward and operate as per points 9 and 10 of the previous chapter. [. . . ] Attention: do not unhook the right drain hose connection. Pull the hose completely out of the holder. Close off the hole with the attached cap. 2. Connect the drain hose to the siphon or hook it over the edge of a sink by means of the “U” bend supplied. [. . . ]
