Transporting storing the appliance
for long periods when appliance
is not in use
If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for
long periods in unheated places, all remaining water
must be completely removed from all hoses.
Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and point
it downwards into a basin until all the water has emptied
out.
When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order.
Cleaning and routine maintenance
Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your washing machine,
just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little
maintenance:
–Cleaning the drawer compartments.
–Cleaning the filter.
Cleaning the drawer compartments
Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the
compartments 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 everything back in its proper place.
FILTER CLEANING
The washing-machine is equipped with a special filter to
retain large foreign matter which could clog up the drain,
such as coins, buttons, etc. These can, therefore, easily be
recovered. The procedures for cleaning the filter are as
follows:
A. Open the flap
B. Only available on certain models:
Pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and
drain the water into a container.
C. 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
D. Turn the filter anticlockwise till it stops in vertical
position.
Remove and clean.
E. After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end
of the filter clockwise. Then follow all procedures
described above in reverse order.
