Cleaning and routine maintenance

Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your
washing machine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing
machine needs very little maintenance:
– Cleaning the drawer compartments.
– Cleaning the filter.
Cleaning the drawer
Clean the compartments occasionally to remove detergents and additives.
A) To do this you just need to pull the drawer out firmly from the machine,
but without forcing it.
B) Clean the compartments under running
water.
C) Replace the drawer.
Cleaning the filter
The washing machine is fitted with a
special filter to prevent items such as
coins, buttons, etc. blocking the
discharge hose. The procedure for
removing foreign objects from the filter
is as follows:
1. Remove the kickplate by gently
pulling it from the bottom in an
outwards and upwards direction.
2. Use the kickplate to collect the
water still in the filter.
3. Turn the filter anticlockwise,
remove it and clean it.
After cleaning the filter, return it to its
original position and lock by turning
clockwise. Replace the kickplate.
We recommend that the filter be cleaned
frequently, at least once a month.
