Maintenance and cleaning
In daily use
Once a wash cycle has completed, you should pull out the
detergent drawer slightly, so it can dry out.
Leave the porthole door ajar for a short while after a wash
cycle has completed. This should help to prevent stagnant
smells and to protect the door seal.
Close the water tap.
We suggest that you disconnect the appliance from your
mains supply, when it is not in use.
Control panel and washing machine cabinet.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use any abrasive cleaner or household polish on
either the control panel or operating parts.
Wipe over the control panel and the external surface of the
machine using a brand new damp cloth with warm water.
If you ever spill any liquid detergent or conditioner from the
detergent drawer onto the washing machine cabinet, then
these should be cleaned up immediately as they could be
corrosive.
