Maintenance - Cleaning the Washing Machine
Siphon Plug
Pull out the detergent drawer. Remove the siphon plug and clean any
residual softener thoroughly. Fit the cleaned siphon plug in its location.
Check it is fitted properly.
Don’t put laundry in the washing machine during the drum cleaning.
Cleaning the Door Seal and Window
• Wipe the window and seal after each wash to remove lint and stains. If lint builds up, it can
cause leaks.
• Remove any coins, buttons and other objects from the door seal after each wash.
Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning.
Cleaning the Exterior of your Washing Machine
• Clean the outside of your washing machine with a soft cloth and mild detergent such as
kitchen detergent.
• Don’t splash water over the washing machine.
• Do not use cream cleansers, thinners or products containing alcohol or kerosene.
Cleaning the Detergent Drawer
1. Remove the detergent drawer by pulling and pressing gently on the rear centre part of the
softener compartment.
2. Wash out old detergent from the drawer with water. (Use a cloth to clean the washing
machine.) Residue detergent soon builds up if you don’t clean the drawer regularly, and can
develop mould.
3. Return drawer to original position.
Pull out at the
