CLEANING THE WASHING MACHINE
The washing machine has been specifi cally designed to reduce maintenance to a

Before cleaning, make sure that the appliance has been disconnected from the power
supply and that the water supply valve has been closed.
The external structure and the parts of the washing machine in plastic must be
cleaned with a soft damp cloth only.
WARNING!! Never use chemicals, abrasive products, alcohol, soap, petrol
or other solvents to clean the appliance as these may cause
damage. (f g. 21)
After washing, leave the door open for a short time to allow rubber parts to dry.
Periodically wash out the detergent compartments. To do this, remove the detergent
compartment and rinse it under running water (fi g. 22). Then replace it.
REMOVING THE DETERGENT DRAWER
open the detergent drawer;
press on the word “PUSH” with the right hand and pull out the drawer with the
left hand (fi g. 23).
