MAINTENANCE
Important
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning you
must
DISCONNECT
the appliance from the electricity
supply.
DESCALING
The water we normally use contains lime. From time to
time, and more often for hard water, it is a good idea to
use a water softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and according to
the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This
will help to reduce the formation of lime deposits.
If you have not been using descaler regularly, do not
start using it once the machine has been in use for
some time as the limescale built-up will dislodge and
could cause component damage.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Use soap and water only and then dry the appliance
thoroughly.

HE DANGERS OF FREEZING
If the machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C,
certain precautions should be taken.
• Turn off both water taps.
• Select a wash programme and run for a few seconds
to relieve the pressure in the hoses. Unscrew hoses
and drain them into a bowl at ground level.
• Unhook the drain hose from the rear support and
position the end in a bowl at ground level to drain.
• When intending to start the machine up again, make
sure that the room temperature is above 0°C .
The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove. Just turn the two screws 1/4 of a turn and slide
the box towards the top
Clean the detergent dispenser under running water with a brush or a piece of rag.
