Care and cleaning
Cleaning the trap and the drainage
pump
The washing machine has a trap where smaller
objects such as coins and hairpins can collect.
To clean the trap and the drainage pump, do as
follows:
1. Make sure the machine is empty of water
and switched off at the mains.
2. Open the door.
3. Unhook the drainage hose from the
connector inside the door and drain the water
into a suitable container, such as a shallow
bowl.
4. Turn the cover anti-clockwise to open the
pump. Remove the cover.
5. Remove any items and so forth from the
pump housing and the cover. Also check that
the pump blades right at the back rotate.
6. Screw on the cover, replace the drainage
hose on the hatch pin and close the hatch.
Cleaning the detergent compartment
Pull out the detergent compartment using the
release button.
Rinse the compartment and scrub it clean. The
cover in the fabric softener compartment can be
removed.
NOTE!
Do not run the detergent compartment through
a dishwasher!
Cleaning the outside of the machine
Clean the outside of the machine and the
program panel with a mild cleaner. Do not use
any solvents, as these can damage the machine.
NOTE!
Do not hose down the machine with water!
Cleaning the inside of the machine to
avoid unpleasant smells
Modern detergents often allow clothes to be
washed at low temperatures. This means that
small deposits can build up in the machine. These,
in turn, may lead to unpleasant smells developing.
To avoid this, we recommend running a 90 °C
wash programme once a month. When you do
this, use a small quantity of detergent. It is not
necessary to put any washing in the machine.
