Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water or electricity
supply
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
unpleasant 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 and buttons)
may fall into the pre-chamber that protects the
pump, situated in the lower part of the same.
Make sure that the wash cycle has ended and
unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. remove the cover
panel (in the lower
front of the washing
machine), prizing it on
both sides with a
screwdriver. Do not
force it.
2. unscrew the lid
rotating it in anti-
clockwise. A little
water may trickle out
(about 1 liter). Put a
little container under
the hole.
3. clean the interior
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 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.
