MAINTENANCE
Bodywork
The outside of the machine can be cleaned with warm
water and a neutral non-abrasive
household
deter-
gent. Wipe with clean water and dry after cleaning.
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.
Detergent dispenser drawer
After a while detergents and fabric softeners leave a
deposit in the drawer.
It should be cleaned from time to time with a jet of run-
ning water.
If necessary it can be removed completely from the
machine by pressing the catch downward and by pul-
ling it out.
To facilitate cleaning, the upper part of the fabric sof-
tener compartment can be removed.
Detergent can also accu-
mulate inside the recess
which should be cleaned
occasionally with an old
toothbrush.
Once you have finished
cleaning,
replace
the
drawer and run a rinse
cycle without laundry.
The drain filter
The drain filter collects threads and small objects left
in the laundry. Check regularly that the filter is
clean to ensure smooth running of your machine.
Remove the panel cove-
ring the filter.
Place a bowl underneath and unscrew the filter by
turning it to the left.
Remove the filter.
Clean it under a fast-run-
ning tap.
If your water is very hard
or contains traces of lime
deposit, the water inlet
filter may become clog-
ged.
It is therefore
a good
idea to clean it from time
to time.
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the water inlet
hose.
Remove and clean the filter using a hard bristle brush.
Replace the filter and tighten up the inlet hose.
