CLEANING THE WASHING MACHINE
The washing machine has been designed to reduce maintenance to a minimum. It
is however important to remember to clean it regularly.
Before cleaning, make sure the appliance is disconnected from the electrical mains
and the water supply is closed.
The outer structure and the plastic parts must be cleaned only with a moist cloth.
Never use chemical agents, abrasive products, alcohol, soap,
petrol or other solvents to clean the machine since they could
damage it.
After a wash, leave the top open for awhile in order to dry the rubber parts. Wash
the detergent chambers periodically. To do this, take out the detergent compartment
and rinse it under running water (fig. 21). Then put it back in.
▼
To take the detergent compartment out, press “PUSH” with your right hand and
with the other hand pull the drawer out pulling it towards you (fig. 22).
The detergent compartment must always be inserted in its hous-
ing for proper machine operation.
