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 washer-dryer 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.

To access the pre-chamber:

1. using a

screwdriver, remove

the cover panel on

the lower front part of

the washer-dryer (see

figure);

2. unscrew the lid

by rotating it anti-

clockwise (see figure):

a little water may

trickle out. This is

perfectly normal;

3. clean the inside thoroughly;

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

immediately: 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

inside the washer-dryer and help to prevent

leaks.

• Unplug the washer-dryer when cleaning it

and during all maintenance work.

Cleaning the washer-dryer

• 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.

• The washer-dryer has a “Auto Clean”

programme for its internal parts that must be

run with no load in the drum.

To help the wash cycle you may want to use

either the detergent (i.e. a quantity 10% the

quantity specified for lightly-soiled garments)

or special additives to clean the washer-

dryer. We recommend running a cleaning

programme every 40 wash cycles.

To start the programme press button A for 5

seconds (see figure).

The programme will start automatically and will

run for about 70 minutes. To stop the cycle

press the START/PAUSE button.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser

drawer

Remove the

dispenser by raising it

and pulling it out (see

figure).

Wash it under running

water; this operation

should be repeated

frequently.
