Maintenance and Cleaning Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or
cleaning is carried out you
must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity
supply.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains
lime. It is a good idea to periodically
use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any
laundry washing, and according to the
softening powder manufacturer's
instructions. This will help to prevent
the formation of lime deposits.
Door seal
Check from time to time the door seal
and eliminate eventual possible
objects that could be trapped in the
fold.
Rust forming could be possible, if
items such as paper clips, buttons,
nails, etc. are not removed after a
long time.

External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the
appliance with soap and water only,
and then dry thoroughly.
Do not use methylated spirits,
solvents or similar products.
Cleaning the detergent
drawer
From time to time the washing powder
and additive dispenser drawer should
be cleaned.
Remove the drawer by pressing the
catch downwards and by pulling it out.
Flush it out under a tap, to remove
any traces of accumulated powder.
To facilitate cleaning, the top part of
the additive compartment can be
removed.

Cleaning the drawer
recess
Having removed the drawer, use a
small brush to clean the recess,
ensuring that all washing powder
residue is removed from the upper
and lower part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse
programme without any clothes in the
drum.
Cleaning the drain filter
A clean filter is important for the
correct functioning of the machine,
and should therefore be cleaned at
regular intervals.
P0038
Unscrew and remove the filter.
Clean carefully under a fast running
tap.
Refit the filter, screwing it fully in.
