Turn off the taps to prevent the chance of flooding
should a hose burst.
•
Turn off the power at the wall.
If you always use cold water, we recommend that a
warm or hot wash be used at regular intervals, eg
every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.
•
Clean with a soft damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not
use scouring cleaners as they can damage the
paint, plastic and panel surfaces.
•
Clean the fabric softener dispenser after each cycle
using warm soapy water.
•
You can remove the lid for cleaning. Open the lid
fully, hold one side with one hand and gently tap
the other side with an upward motion.
To replace the lid, hold the lid vertically and align
both hinges before pushing down firmly.
•
To remove the agitator for cleaning, unscrew the
nut down the centre of the agitator by turning
anti-clockwise.
The agitator must be fully pushed on to the
shaft when refitting. Tighten the nut firmly by
hand. Ensure the agitator is not loose.
If you use fabric softener or do regular cold water
washing, it is important that you occasionally clean the
inside of your machine.

Fill your machine with hot water. Add about two
cups of a powdered detergent that contains phosphate.
