In some cases it may help to soak the stain before washing with a special pre soak product or biological detergent. · Only wool marked "Pure New Wool - washable, preshrunk" can be washed in the machine using the wool programme; other types of wool should be washed by hand or dry cleaned. · Once you have finished using the machine, you are advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap. · To avoid an excessive and damaging amount of lather when washing net curtains, it is advisable to wash large curtains singularly and take extra care when measuring the detergent. Should an excess of lather accidentally occur, switch off the machine, select the spin programme which is preceded by a drain cycle, to remove the lather and then start the wash again. · Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colourfastness and how dirty it is. · Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with small ones. · Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws, etc. ), as these could damage the drain pump. · It is essential to wash new coloured items separately when washing for the first time. · When washing fabrics requiring different wash temperatures together, always select the lowest temperature. [. . . ] If the filter is P0341 blocked and the machine is unable to drain, you will need to drain the water from the machine manually at this stage. To do this, unhook the drain hose from the standpipe or sink, and hold the end of the hose over a bowl on the floor. Clean carefully under a fast running tap. Descaling The water we normally use contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the machine. [. . . ]
