Maintenance and Cleaning

Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried

out you must DISCONNECT tha appliance

from the electricity supply

Descaling

The water we normally use 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.

After each wash

Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent

mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance.

Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to

preserve the door seal.

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap

and water only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser 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.

Keep clean the control panel to avoid liquids to

spread in the inside part of the panel

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 for a

few minutes without any clothes in the drum.
