Cutting off the water and electricity

supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This will

limit wear on the hydraulic system in the machine and

help to prevent leaks.

 Unplug the appliance when cleaning it and during all

maintenance work.

Cleaning the 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

To pull out the dispenser drawer, open until the first stop

point then press lever A to open completely; finally, press

one of the levers D and pull the drawer outwards (see

picture).

Wash it under running water; this procedure should be

effected regularly. Be careful to remove any detergent

residues from the dispenser drawer socket on the

machine.

Keep the drawer to the left hand side when replacing it

to ensure that it centres the guides and to prevent it

from jamming.

Caring for your appliance drum

 Always leave the door ajar 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

protective pre-chamber at the base of the pump.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the

appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. take off the cover panel on the front of the machine

by first pressing it in the centre and then pushing

downwards on both sides until you can remove it (see

figures);

2. position a container so

that it will collect the water

which flows out

(approximately 1.5 l) (see

figure);

3. unscrew the lid by

rotating it in an anti-

clockwise direction (see

figure);

4. clean the inside thoroughly;

5. screw the lid back on;

6. 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.
