Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and

electricity supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.

This will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside

the washing machine and help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and

during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washing machine

The outer parts and rubber components of the

appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth soaked

in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or

abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser

drawer

Remove the dispenser

by raising it and pulling

it out (see figure).

Wash it under running

water; this operation

should be repeated

frequently.

Caring for the door and drum of

your appliance

 Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning

pump which does not require any maintenance.

Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)

may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the

pump, situated in its bottom part.

! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug

the appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a screwdriver,

remove the cover panel

on the lower front part

of the washing machine

(see figure);

2. unscrew the lid by

rotating it anti-

clockwise (see figure): a

little water may trickle

out. This is perfectly

normal;

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

4. screw the lid back on;

5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are

securely in place before you push it onto the

appliance.

Checking the water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there

are any cracks, it should be replaced immediately:

during the wash cycles, water pressure is very

strong and a cracked hose could easily split open.

 Never use second-hand hoses.
