CHAPTER 14
CLEANING AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Do not use abrasives, spirits and/or diluents on the exterior of
the appliance. It is sufficient to use a damp cloth.
The washing machine requires very little maintenance:
Cleaning of drawer compartments.
Removals or long periods when the machine is left
standing.
CLEANING OF DRAWER COMPARTMENTS
Although not strictly necessary, it is advisable to clean the
detergent, bleach and additives compartments occasionally.
Remove the compartments by pulling gently.
Clean with water.
Put the compartments back into place

REMOVALS OR LONG PERIODS WHEN THE MACHINE IS LEFT
STANDING
When the machine is left standing for long periods in
unheated rooms, the drain hose should be emptied of all
remaining water.
This operation is recommended when moving the appliance
from its installation.
The appliance must be switched off and unplugged. A bowl
is needed. Detach the drainage hose from the clamp and
lower it over the bowl until all the water is removed.
Repeat the same operation with the water inlet hose.
