DISCONNECT THE WATER AND POWER

SUPPLIES

Close the water tap after every wash. 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.

CLEAN 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-cleaning” cycle for its

internal parts; it must be run without any load in the drum.

To optimise this cycle, it is possible to use either detergent

(10% of the quantity specied for lightly soiled garments)

or special additives to clean the washing machine. We

recommend running a cleaning cycle every 40 wash cycles.

To start the cycle press buttons and simultaneously

for 5 seconds.

The cycle will start automatically and will run for about 70

minutes. To stop the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button.

CLEANING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

DRAWER

To remove the drawer, press lever (1) and pull the drawer

outwards (2) (see gure). Wash it under running water; this

procedureshould be repeated frequently.

CARE FOR THE DOOR AND DRUM

Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent

unpleasant odours from forming.

CLEAN THE PUMP

The washing machine is tted with a auto-cleaning pump

that does not require any maintenance. Small items (such as

coins or buttons) may sometimes fall into the protective pre-

chamber situated at the base of the pump.

! Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug the

appliance.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. Remove the cover panel on the front of the machine by

rst pressing it in the centre then pushing downwards on

both sides to extract it;

Loosen the drainage pump cover by turning it anti-

clockwise: it is normal for some water to leak out;

3. Clean the inside thoroughly;

4. Screw the cover back on;

5. Put the panel back in place, making sure the hooks slot in

place before pushing the panel onto the appliance.

CHECK THE WATER INLET HOSE

Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If it is cracked

or broken, it must be replaced: during wash cycles, the high

pressure of the water could suddenly split the hose open.

! Never use hoses that have already been used.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Before performing cleaning and maintenance, switch the washing machine o and disconnect it from the mains

power. Do not use ammable liquids to clean the washing machine.
