Preventing a Frozen Water Supply Hose
If your washing machine is delivered in freezing weather conditions, leave it
at room temperature for 24 hours after you’ve set it up before using it. This
ensures there’s no ice blocking the water supply hose. If your water supply
hose freezes, add 2 or 3 litres of warm water to the drum. Then run a “Spin”
only programme.
Cleaning the Filter Net of the Water Supply Hose
1. Turn the water supply off at the tap.
2. Close the washing machine door and select “Drain” programme and press the Start/Pause button.
3. When finished, turn the power off. Loosen the water supply hose and remove it from the washing
machine.
4. Use a small brush, e.g. a toothbrush to clean the filter of the water supply hose.
5. Re-connect the water supply hose to the washing machine and turn the tap back on, checking for
leaks.
Before cleaning the drain filter, switch off and unplug the washing machine.
