General recommendations
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE
Do not use abrasives, spirits or solvents when cleaning the exterior of the washing machine. It is sufficient
to use a damp cloth.
The washing machine requires very little maintenance.
• Drying the rubber seal of the drum.
• Cleaning the dispenser and its compartments.
• Cleaning the filter.
• Cleaning prior to removals or when the machine is to stand idle for long periods.
To help conserve the washing machine, dry the rubber seal and leave the door open when the
cycle ends.
CLEANING THE FILTER
The washing machine comes with a special filter, located behind the machine’s front plinth panel, that
collects larger objects (coins, buttons, etc.) which could even block the pump.
It is advisable to clean the filter whenever the machine fails to rinse the clothes as well as it should
or when it fails to drain properly.
When it is necessary to clean the filter, proceed as follows:
• Use a basin to collect the water coming out.
• Remove the filter and clean it.
• Once the filter is clean, replace it by following the above-
mentioned pro in reverse.
