Maintenance
1. 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.
2. 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 com-
partments can be removed.
Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer
recess: clean it with an old toothbrush. Refit the draw-
er after cleaning.
3. Drain filter
The drain filter collects threads and small objects inad-
vertently left in the laundry. Check regularly that the fil-
ter is clean.
Place a container under the filter and unscrew it.
Pull out the filter.
Clean the filter under a running tap, then refit it, screw-
ing it fully in.
4. Water inlet filter
If you notice that the machine is taking longer to fill,
check that the filter in the water inlet hose is not
blocked.
Turn off the water tap.
Unscrew the hose from the tap.
Clean the filter with a stiff brush.
Screw the hose back onto the tap.
