Care and maintenance

Cutting off the water and electricity

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.

For maximum performance 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 last approximately 70 minutes. To stop the

cycle press the START/PAUSE button.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser

drawer

Caring for the door and drum of your

appliance

• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to

prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

To remove the drawer,

press lever (1) and pull

the drawer outwards (2)

(see figure).

Wash it under running

water; this procedure

should be repeated fre-

quently.

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:

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 cen-

tre and then pushing

downwards on both

sides until you can re-

move it (see figures).

2. Unscrew the lid

by rotating it anti-

clockwise (see figu-

re): a little water may

trickle out. This is

perfectly normal.
