Cleaning and routine maintenance

Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your washing ma-

chine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little

maintenance:

– Cleaning the drawer compartments;

– Cleaning the filter;

– Removals or long periods when the machine is left standing.

Cleaning the drawer compartments

Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the com-

partments for bleaching detergents and additives occasionally.

A. To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but without

forcing them;

B. Clean everything in the compartment under running water;

C. Put the compartments back into place

Filter cleaning

The washing-machine is equipped with a special filter to re-

tain large foreign matter which could clog up the drain, such

as coins, buttons, etc. These can, therefore, easily be re-

covered. The procedures for cleaning the filter are as fol-

lows:

• Open the flap;

• Only available on certain models:

Pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and drain

the water into a container.

• Before removing the filter, place an absorbent towel below

the filter cap to collect the small amount of water likely to be

inside the pump;

• Turn the filter anticlockwise till it stops in vertical position;

• Remove and clean;

A. After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end of the filter clockwise. Then fol-

low all procedures described above in reverse order.
