9 - RINSING
10 - STORAGE
If you plan to store the washing machine in a cupboard, first make sure all the water has been drained and then:
- Remove the lid (D),
- Store the power cord in the power cord cassette (14),
- Turn the motor unit upside down and put it in the tub as shown in drawing 6.
- Slide the cover into the tub (see drawing 6).
The washing machine will now take up less storage space.
11 - MAINTENANCE - CLEANING
Never perform maintenance or clean the washing machine when it is plugged in or still warm after washing.
You new washing machine requires very little care. Just rinse the washing unit components and tub with tap water.
•
Push the drain handle (4) to the left (
●
) position
(See drawing 1) to stop draining.
- We recommend that you use the fill hose to add the rinse
water. This is a fast, convenient and easy method.
- Once the tub is full, the rinse water will come out the overflow
(See drawing 5 for Models 50.23, 50.24, 50.27 and 50.33 or
drawing 7 No. 24 for Model 50.40)
- Your clothes will be rinsed when the overflow water is clear.
You can then drain the machine.
•
Dismantling and Cleaning the Washing Unit
- Pinch the left tab in the partition (11) as shown in drawing 7
and lift out the washing unit. Turn it upside down.
- Push against the plastic clip under the rotor plate as shown in
drawing 8. This will separate the rotor plate (10), the roller ring
(9) and roller track (7).
- Remove all fluff that may have been trapped on the
components and rinse them with tap water.
It will often be sufficient to remove only the rotor plate, however
it may also be necessary to:
- make sure that no threads are wound around the pinion. If
threads are present but are difficult to remove, pinch both
bottom tabs to allow separation of the partition from the rotor
plate (See drawing 9) and remove the drive shaft (12).
- Reinsert the drive shaft all the way into the bearing and
assemble the partition. Make sure both partition tabs are
secured into the rotor plate.
- Place the roller ring and then the rotor plate on the roller
track. Assemble them using the plastic clip under the rotor
plate.
•
Reassembling the Washing Unit
Replace the washing unit inside the tub and clip the partition to
the tub.
•
Motor Unit
Never remove the motor unit. It requires no maintenance
or lubrication.
•
Cleaning the Tub
- Make sure that no threads are trapped in the drain hole to
keep your machine completely leak-tight. You can get access to
the hole by lifting the hose (drawing 10).
•
Model 50.40
- Once the heater is cool, check it to make sure no fluff is stuck
to it. Be careful not to damage the heater or to move the two
heater supports. Never remove the heater or the floater, other-
wise your washing machine may no longer be safe to operate.
- Remove all fluff that may have been trapped by these compo-
nents and rinse them with tap water.
•
Model 50.27
There are three rinse programs available: single, double or
triple rinse cycle.
- Set the programme knob to the desired rinse duration (There
is a two-minute pause between each rinse; the total duration for
three rinse cycles is 16 minutes).
You may start the rinse program on any of the three rinse
programmes, stop the machine at any time during a cycle and
even skip a rinse cycle.
IMPORTANT
If the motor stops operating at any time during operation
(power failure, fuse or circuit-breaker tripped, plug pulled
out, failure of a safety feature, or other reason), take the
laundry items out of the tub (particularly if the machine is
full) and let the machine finish the 20 second cycle empty.
If you replace the power cord at any time, always use
the following:
Models 50.23, 50.24, 50.33, 50.27:
H 05 VVH 2F 2 x 0.75 mm
2
Model 50.40: H 05 VV F 3 x 1 mm
