Cleaning and maintenance
After each wash
At the end of the wash programme, pull the dispenser drawer out a lit-
tle to let it dry.
Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.
If the machine is not used for a prolonged period:
Close the water tap and unplug the appliance.
Periodical cleaning

Clean the outside of the cabinet with soap and water only. Rinse with
clean water and dry.
Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to
clean the cabinet.
Detergent dispenser drawer
