Maintenance

1. Door seal

Check from time to time the door seal and eliminate
eventual possible objects that could be trapped in
the fold.

Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or
similar products to clean the bodywork.

2. Bodywork

Clean the outside of the machine with warm water
and a neutral, non-abrasive household detergent.
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
compartment can be removed.

Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer
recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the
drawer after cleaning.

4. Drain pump

The pump should be inspected if

• the machine does not empty and/or spin
• the machine makes an unusual noise during

draining due to objects such as safety pins, coins
etc. blocking the pump.

Proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the appliance.
• If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.
• Open the pump door.

• Place a container close to the pump to collect any

spillage.

• Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in

the container and remove its cap.

• When no more water comes out, unscrew the

pump and remove it. Always keep a rag nearby to
dry up spillage of water when removing the pump.
