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.
Caring for your appliance door and
drum
Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent
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 buttons)
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.
How to clean the detergent dispenser
Cleaning:
Then clean the dispenser under a tap
(fig. 3)
using an
old toothbrush and, once the pair of siphons inserted in
the top of compartments 1 and 2
(fig. 4)
have been pulled
out, check whether the same are not clogged and then
rinse them.
Reassembly:
Do not forget to reinsert the
pair of siphons into the spe-
cial housings and then to
replace the dispenser into
its seat, clicking it into place
(fig. 4, 2 and 1).
Disassembly:
Press lightly on the large
button on the front of the
detergent dispenser and
pull it upwards
(fig. 1, 2).
To recover any objects that have fallen into the pre-
chamber:
1. remove the plinth at
the bottom on the front
side of the washing
machine by pulling from
the side with your
hands
(see figure)
;
2. unscrew the lid
rotating it anticlock-
wise
(see figure)
: a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly normal;
3. clean the interior
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 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.
