Cleaning and maintenance

After each wash

At the end of the wash programme, pull the dispenser drawer out a lit- tle to let it dry.

Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.

If the machine is not used for a prolonged period:

Close the water tap and unplug the appliance.

Periodical cleaning

Exterior

Clean the outside of the cabinet with soap and water only. Rinse with clean water and dry.

Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet.

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 compartment can be removed.

Detergent can also accumulate inside the drawer recess: clean it with an old tooth- brush.

Refit the drawer after cleaning.
