Cleaning and maintenance

1. After each wash

At the end of the wash programme, pull the
dispenser drawer out a little to let it dry.
Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.
If the machine is not used for a prolonged
period:
Close the water tap and unplug the appliance.

2. Bodywork

Clean the outside of the machine with soap and
water only. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft
cloth.
Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or
similar products to clean the bodywork.

3. Detergent dispenser drawer

After a while, detergents and fabric softeners leave
deposits in the drawer.
Clean the drawer from time to time by rinsing it under
a running tap. To remove the drawer from the
machine, press the button in the rear left-hand
corner.
To facilitate cleaning, the top part of the additive
compartments can be removed.

The drain filter collects threads and small objects
inadvertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that
the filter is clean.
Open the filter door by pulling it towards the right.
Place a container under the filter to catch any
spillage.
Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in
the container, and remove its cap by unscrewing it.

When no more water comes out, unscrew the filter
and remove it.
Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it,
screwing it fully in.
Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose,
place the latter back in its seat. Close the filter door.
