Maintenance and Cleaning
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning
you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the
electricity supply.
Descaling
The water we normally use contains lime. To help
prevent the formation of lime deposits we
recommend you periodically, particularly in hard
water areas, use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry and
according to the manufacturer's instructions.
After each wash
Leave the lid and the drum open for a while. This
helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming
inside the appliance.
External Cleaning
Wipe the exterior cabinet of the appliance with a
soft cloth and warm soapy water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning products.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove.
Press the pressure tabs located on each side of
the detergent dispenser inwards and pull it up
(fig.1 and fig.2).
Clean the detergent dispenser under running water
with a brush or cloth (fig.3). Check that the si-
phons located at the back of the detergent dispen-
ser are not obstructed (fig.4).
Replace the detergent dispenser in the notches
until it hangs securely in place (fig.5).
Cleaning the drain filter
A clean filter is important for correct functioning of
the machine, and should therefore be cleaned
after every wash.
However, if the drain filter is dirty, the FILTER
indicator light illuminates. In this case, clean the
filter at once.
Open the door, with a scewdriver for example
(fig.6 and fig.7) :
