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 waher-
dryer and help to prevent leaks.
• Unplug the waher-dryer when cleaning it and during all
maintenance work.
Cleaning the waher-dryer
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 wa-
ter; this procedure should
be repeated frequently.
Cleaning the pump
The waher-dryer 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 pre-
chamber which protects the pump, situated in its bottom
part.
! 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 rota-
ting 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.
