Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system inside
the Washer-dryer and help to prevent leaks.
• Unplug the Washer-dryer when cleaning it and
during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the Washer-dryer
• The outer parts and rubber components of
the appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use
solvents or abrasives.
• The washer-dryer has a “Auto Clean” program -
me for its internal parts that must be run with
no load in the drum .
For maximum performance you may want to
use either the detergent (i.e. a quantity 10% the
quantity specified for lightly-soiled garments)
or special additives to clean the washer-dryer.
We recommend running a cleaning programme
every 40 wash cycles.
To start the programme press buttons
A
and
B
simultaneously for 5 seconds (see figure).
The programme will start automatically and will
last approximately 70 minutes.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
drawer
Remove the dispenser
by raising it and pulling
it out ( see figure ).
Wash it under running
water; this operation
should be repeated
frequently.
Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The Washer-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump which does not require any maintenan-
ce. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or
buttons) may fall into the pre-chamber which
protects the pump, situated in its bottom part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and
unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover pa-
nel on the lower front
part of the Washer-
dryer ( see figure ) ;
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwi-
se ( see figure ) : a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly nor-
mal;
3. clean the inside thoroughly;
4. screw the lid back on;
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks
are securely in place before you push it onto the
appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there
are any cracks, it should be replaced immedia-
tely: during the wash cycles, water pressure is
very strong and a cracked hose could easily
split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
