Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water or electricity supply
GB
• Turn off the water tap after every wash. This will limit
the wear of your appliance's water system and also
prevent leaks.
• Unplug your appliance when cleaning it and during all
maintenance operations.
Cleaning your appliance
The exterior and rubber parts of your appliance can be
cleaned with a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water.
Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Caring for your appliance door and
drum
• Always leave the appliance door ajar to prevent unplea-
sant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump
that does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small
items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the pre-
chamber that protects the pump, situated in the lower part
of the same.
!
Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug the
appliance.
Disassembly:
Press lightly on the large
button on the front of the
detergent dispenser and pull
it upwards (fig. 1, 2).

How to clean the detergent dispenser
Cleaning:
Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3) using an old
toothbrush and, once the pair of siphons inserted in the top
of compartments 1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check
whether the same are not clogged and then rinse them.

To recover any objects that have fallen into the pre-chamber:
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If you see
any cracks, replace it immediately: during the wash cycles,
water pressure is very strong and a cracked hose could
easily split open.
!
Never use hoses that have already been used.

1. remove the plinth at the
bottom on the front side of
the washing machine by
pulling from the side with
your hands (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid rotating it
anticlock-wise (see figure):
a little water may trickle out.
This is perfectly normal;
3. clean the interior tho-
roughly;
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.
Reassembly:
Do not forget to reinsert
the pair of siphons into the
special housings and then
to replace the dispenser into
its seat, clicking it into place
(fig. 4, 2 and 1).
