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 washing 
machine and help to prevent leaks.

• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and du-

ring all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washing machine

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.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

Remove the dispenser by 
raising it and pulling it out 
(

see figure

).

Wash it under running wa-
ter; 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 washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump 
which does not require any maintenance. 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 panel 
on the lower front part of 
the washing machine (

see 

figure

)

;

2. unscrew the lid by rota-
ting it anti-clockwise (

see

 

figure

)

a little water may 

trickle out. This is perfectly 
normal;

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 immediately: during the wash 
cycles, water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose 
could easily split open.

!

 Never use second-hand hoses.
