CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Detergent dispenser

Clean the detergent dispenser regularly, at least three or
four times a year, to prevent detergent build-up:
1. Push in the buttons on each side of the dispenser.
2. Pull the dispenser towards you and remove it.
A small quantity of water can remain in the dispenser. It is
advisable to carry the dispenser in an upright position.
3. Wash the dispenser using running water.
You can also remove the siphon caps in the dispenser for cleaning.
4. Replace the siphon caps in the dispenser (if removed).
Make sure that they lock in place.
5. Replace the dispenser by locating the bottom tabs in the lid
holes and pivot until both of the upper buttons lock.
Note: ensure that the detergent dispenser is correctly
reinstalled.
Water inlet hose filter
Check and clean regularly (at least two or three times a year).
1. Unplug the washing machine.
2. Turn off the tap.
3. Unscrew the hose from the tap.
4. Carefully clean the filter located at the end of hose, without
disassembling it, for example with a tooth-brush.
Note: Do not submerge the hose in water.
5. Screw the flexible hose back onto the tap by hand. Do not use
pliers (risk of squashing the joint).
6. Turn on the tap and check that the connections are
water-tight.
7. Plug the washing machine back in.
Water inlet hose (A, B or C, depending on model)
Check regularly for brittleness and cracks. If a inlet hose shows a
damage, replace it by a new hose of the same type, available through
our After-Sales Service or your specialist dealer.
If the inlet hose of your washing machine corresponds with the
model on picture "A", periodically check the safety valve inspection
window: if it is red, the hose's waterstop function was triggered, and
the hose must be exchanged by a new one from our After-Sales
Service or your specialist dealer
If your supply hose has a transparent hose coating (fig. "B"),
periodically check the colour. If the hose colour intensifies locally,
this is an indication that the hose may have a leak and should be
replaced. Contact our After-Sales Service team or specialist dealer
to obtain a replacement hose.
