Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and
GB
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.

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
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.

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. 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. Unscrew the lid
by rotating it anti-
clockwise (see figure):
a little water may
trickle out. This is
perfectly normal.
