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 washer-dryer and

help to prevent leaks.

• Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it and during all

maintenance work.

Cleaning the washer-dryer

• 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.

• The washer-dryer has a “Auto Clean” programme for its

internal parts that must be run with no load in the drum.

To help the wash cycle you may want to use either the

detergent (i.e. a quantity 10% the quantity specified

for lightly-soiled garments) or special additives to clean

the washer-dryer. We recommend running a cleaning

programme every 40 wash cycles.

To start the programme press button A for 5 seconds (see

figure).

The programme will start automatically and will run for

about 70 minutes. To stop the cycle press the START/

PAUSE button.

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 washer-dryer 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

washer-dryer (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.
