Bodywork

Clean the outside of the machine with soap and
water only. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft
cloth.

Important:

do not use methylated spirits, solvents or

similar products to clean the bodywork.

Door seal

Check from time to time the door seal and eliminate
eventual possible objects that could be trapped in
the fold.

Detergent dispenser drawer

After a while, detergents and fabric softeners leave
deposits in the drawer.
Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it under
a running tap. To remove the drawer from the
machine, press the button in the rear left-hand
corner.
To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive
compartments can be removed.

Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer
recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the
drawer after cleaning.

Drain pump

The pump should be inspected regularly and
particularly if
• the machine does not empty and/or spin 
• the machine makes an unusual noise during

draining due to objects such as safety pins, coins
etc. blocking the pump. 

Proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the appliance. 
•  If necessary wait until the water has cooled down. 
• Open the pump door.

•  Place a container close to the pump to collect any

spillage. 

•  Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in

the container and remove its cap.

•  When no more water comes out, unscrew the

pump and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to
dry up spillage of water when removing the pump.
