Cleaning The Water Intake Filters; The Pump Filter - Beko EV7100 User Manual

5.4 Cleaning the water intake filters

There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve
at the rear of the machine and also at the end of each
water intake hose where they are connected to the
tap. These filters prevent foreign substances and dirt
in the water to enter the washing machine. Filters
should be cleaned as they do get dirty.
Close the taps. Remove the nuts of the water intake
hoses to access the filters on the water intake valves.
Clean them with an appropriate brush. If the filters
are too dirty, take them out by means of pliers and
clean them. Take out the filters on the flat ends of
the water intake hoses together with the gaskets
and clean thoroughly under running water. Replace
the gaskets and filters carefully in their places and
tighten the hose nuts by hand.
5.5 Draining remaining water and cleaning

the pump filter

The filter system in your machine prevents solid
items such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers
clogging the pump impeller during discharge of
washing water. Thus, the water will be discharged
without any problem and the service life of the pump
will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter
is clogged. Filter must be cleaned whenever it is
clogged or in every 3 months. Water must be drained
off first to clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g.,
when moving to another house) and in case of
freezing of the water, water may have to be drained
completely.

WARNING
Foreign substances left in the pump filter may damage

INFORMATIONS
You can remove the filter cover by slightly pushing
downwards with a thin plastic tipped tool, through the
gap above the filter cover. Do not use metal tipped tools
to remove the cover.
Follow the steps below to discharge the water.
Place a large container in front of the filter to
catch water from the filter. Loosen pump filter
(anticlockwise) until water starts to flow. Fill the
flowing water into the container you have placed in
front of the filter. Always keep a piece of cloth handy
to absorb any spilled water. When the water inside
the machine is finished, take out the filter completely
by turning it.
Clean any residues inside the filter as well as fibers,
if any, around the pump impeller region. Install the
filter.
Seat the tabs in the lower part into their places first,
and then press the upper part to close.
