To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover pa-
nel on the lower front
part of the washing
machine (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwi-
se (see figure): a little
water may trickle out.
This is perfectly nor-
mal;
3. clean the inside tho-
roughly;
4. screw the lid back
on;
5. reposition the panel,
making sure the hooks
are securely in place
before you push it onto
the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the inlet hose at least once a year. If there
are any cracks, it should be replaced immedia-
tely: during the wash cycles, water pressure is
very strong and a cracked hose could easily
split open.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
Care and maintenance
Cutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle.
This will limit wear on the hydraulic system in-
side the washing machine and help to prevent
leaks.
• Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it
and during all maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the
appliance can be cleaned using a soft cloth
soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use
solvents or abrasives.
Caring for the door and drum of
your appliance
• Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to
prevent unpleasant odours from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning
pump which does not require any maintenance.
Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons)
may fall into the pre-chamber which protects the
pump, situated in its bottom part.
! Make sure the wash cycle has finished and
unplug the appliance.
How to clean the detergent dispenser
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Cleaning:
Then clean the dispenser under a tap (fig. 3)
using an old toothbrush and, once the pair of
siphons inserted in the top of compartments
1 and 2 (fig. 4) have been pulled out, check
whether the same are not clogged and then
rinse them.
Reassembly:
Do not forget to rein-
sert the pair of siphons
into the special housings
and then to replace the
dispenser into its seat,
clicking it into place (fig.
4, 2 and 1).
Disassembly:
Press lightly on the
large button on the
front of the detergent
dispenser and pull it
upwards (fig. 1).
