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 dra-

wer

Remove the dispenser by

raising it and pulling it out

(see figure).

Wash it under running wa-

ter; 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 rota-

ting 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.
