Your washing machine is a reliable companion in life and on
the job. It is just as important for you to keep it in shape.

Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3) using an old tooth-
brush and, once the pair of siphons inserted in the top of com-
partments 1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check whether
the same are not clogged and then rinse them.

Your washing machine is
designed to last a lifetime
without any problems. A few
simple steps help keep it in
shape and last longer.
Firstly, you must turn off the
water tap after each wash:
the constant pressure of water
could warp a few of the
component parts.
In addition, by doing so, you
will avoid the risk of leaks when
no-one is at home.
If the water in your area is too
hard, use a deliming product
(water is hard if it often leaves
whitish stains around taps or
drains, especially of bath tubs.
For more accurate information
as to the type of water in your
system, call the local water
works or a local plumber).
Pockets must always be
emptied by removing even
coins, pins, badges and any
other hard object.
The washing machine exterior
should be cleaned with a cloth
dipped in lukewarm soapy
water.
Never exaggerate with
detergent doses.
Normal detergents already
contain deliming agents. Only
if the water is particularly hard,
that is, rich in lime content, do
we recommend the use of a
specific product at every wash.
A periodical wash cycle with a
dose of a deliming product,
without detergents or
washing, may prove useful.
Never use too much detergent
or additives because this
could cause an excess
amount of foam, scaling and
possible damage to the
component parts of your
washing machine.
It is important to wash
the detergent dispenser
regularly.
To prevent dried washing
powder from
accumulating, place the
dispenser under running
water for a few minutes.
Do not forget to empty all pockets:
small metallic objects can cause damage to your
washing machine’s drum during the spin cycle.
