CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE WASHING MACHINE
CHECKING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE
Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outer parts of the washing
machine.
If the inlet hose has a transparent coating, periodically check
if the colour intensifies locally. If yes, the hose may have a leak
and should be replaced.
Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks. If
damaged, replace it by a new hose available through our
After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer.
Depending on the hose type:
For any cleaning and maintenance, switch off and unplug the washing
machine. Do not use flammable fluids to clean the washing machine.
Do not use glass or general purpose cleaners, scouring powder
or similar to clean the control panel - these substances might
damage the printing.
For water stop hoses: check the small safety valve inspection
window (see arrow). If it is red, the water stop function was
triggered, and the hose must be replaced by a new one.
For unscrewing this hose, press the release button (if
available) while unscrewing the hose.
