Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water or electricity
supply
• Turn off the water tap after every wash. This
will limit the wear of your appliance’s water
system and also prevent leaks.
• Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and
during all maintenance operations.
Cleaning your appliance
The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can
be cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm
soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
Remove the dispen-
ser by pulling it out
(see figure).
Wash it under running
water; this operation
should be repeated
frequently.
Caring for your appliance door and
drum
• Always leave the appliance door ajar to pre-
vent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump that does not require any maintenance.
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or but-
tons) may fall into the pre-chamber that protects
the pump, situated in the lower part of the same.
! Make sure the wash cycle has ended and
unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. unscrew the lid ro-
tating it anti-clockwi-
se (see figure): a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly nor-
mal;
2. clean the interior thoroughly;
3. screw the lid back on.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If
you see any cracks, replace it immediately: during
the wash cycles, water pressure is very strong and
a cracked hose could easily split open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
