To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a screwdri-

ver, 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 fi-

gure): 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 ho-

oks 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.

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.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser

drawer

Remove the dispen-

ser by raising it and

pulling it out (see

figure).

Wash it under run-

ning 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.
