leaks.

maintenance operations.

surfaces of the appliance.

Caring for your appliance door and drum

• Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours
from forming.

Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If you see
any cracks, replace it immediately. During the wash
cycles, high water pressure could cause a cracked hose
to split open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
