7Cleaning and care
Detergent drawer
Remove any powder residue buildup in the drawer. To do this;
1.Press the dotted point on the siphon in the softener compartment and pull towards you until the compartment is removed from the machine.
CIf more than a normal amount of water and softener mixture starts to gather in the softener compartment, the siphon must be cleaned.
2.Wash the dispenser drawer and the siphon with plenty of lukewarm water in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves or use an appropriate brush to avoid touching the residues in the drawer when cleaning.
3.Replace the drawer into its housing after cleaning. Check if the siphon is in its original location.
The door and the drum
After each wash:
•Check if there are any foreign substances in the drum.
•Open the hole in the bellow with the aid of a toothpick if it is clogged.
CForeign metal substances in your machine can cause rust stains. In such cases:
Clean the drum with a stainless steel cleaning agent. Never use steel wool or wire wool.
Outer cabinet and control panel
When necessary:
•Wipe the exterior panels of your machine with soapy water or mild detergent. Dry it with a soft cloth.
•Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control panel.
CNever use a sponge or scrubbing material. These will damage the painted and plastic parts.
Inlet water filters
There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve at the back side of the machine and also at the end of each water intake hose where they are connected to the tap. These filters prevent the foreign substances and dirt in the water to enter into the machine. Filters should be cleaned as they get dirty.
•Close the taps.
