Care and cleaning
Warning! You must DISCONNECT the appliance
from the electricity supply, before you can carry
out any cleaning or maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,
and according to the softening powder manufacturer's
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of
lime deposits.
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap
and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer
The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer
should be cleaned regularly.
Remove the drawer by
pressing the catch down-
wards and by pulling it
out. Flush it out under a
tap, to remove any traces
of accumulated powder.
To aid cleaning, the top
part of the additive com-
partment should be re-
moved.
Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the draw-
er, use a small brush to
clean the recess, ensur-
ing that all washing pow-
der residue is removed
from the upper and lower
part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme with-
out any clothes in the drum.
Cleaning the pump
The pump should be inspected regularly and particular-
ly if:
• the appliance does not empty and/or spin;
• the appliance makes an unusual noise during drain-
ing due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc.
blocking the pump;
• a problem with water draining is detected (see chap-
ter “What to do if...” for more details).
Warning! Before opening the pump door, switch
the appliance off and remove the mains plug from
the socket.
Proceed as follows:
• Unplug the appliance.
• If it is necessary, wait until the water has cooled down.
Open the pump door.
Place a container close to
the pump to collect any
spillage.
Pull out the emergency
emptying hose, place it in
the container and remove
its cap.
When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump
cover by turning it anti-clockwise and remove the fil-
ter. Use pliers, if necessary. Always keep a rag nearby
to dry up any water spillages when removing the cover.
Clean the filter under a tap, to remove any traces of fluff.
