Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
GB
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
during 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.
• The washing machine has a "Auto Clean" programme
for its internal parts that must be run with no load in the
drum.
To help the wash cycle 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
washing machine. 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 run for
about 70 minutes. To stop the cycle press the START/
PAUSE button.

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:
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.
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover panel
on the lower front part of
the washing machine (see
figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwise
(see figure): a little water
may trickle out. This is
perfectly normal;
