I can answer my own question now, thanks to an engineer at Comet! Pull the machine out so it can be leaned backwards to drain out any water. Plenty of towels required! Leave it like that for 30 mins. Return to upright and leave for a further 24 hours to dry out completely. Another point to watch though is that leaning it back can cause the water inlet to leak!! The connection should only be finger tight. turn off water, disconnect and reconnect efore rushing off to by a new pipe/connector. It worked for me!
