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