MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
▼ The washing machine is a domestic appliance that does not need any particular maintenance, in that it has been designed to last. Nevertheless, it is advisable to take one or two precautions. The external structure and the parts of the washing machine in plastic must be cleaned with a soft damp cloth only.
WARNING!! Never use chemicals, abrasive products, alcohol, soap, petrol or other solvents to clean the appliance as these may cause damage.
PERIODICALLY CLEAN THE DETERGENT DRAWER
▼ The drawer must be cleaned whenever there are detergent residues present. The detergent drawer can be removed by pulling it out and pressing up from underneath at the same time.
CLEANING THE PUMP FILTER
▼This operation should be carried out at least once a month. Make sure that there is no water in the drum.
Place a shallow basin or rag under the filter door to catch any water that may be left in the filter compartment. The filter can be removed by rotating it anticlockwise half a turn and pulling outwards.
Clean the filter under running water, making sure that all the deposits are removed. Replace the filter in its housing by screwing it in clockwise, Make sure it is properly seated and locked in place.
