		• 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

To access the pre-chamber:

1. unscrew the lid by rotating it anti- clockwise (see figu- re): a little water may trickle out. This is perfectly normal;

2.clean the inside thoroughly;

3.screw the lid back on;

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.

Remove the dispenser by raising it and pul- ling it out (see figure). Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

!Never use second-hand hoses.

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 maintenan- ce. 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.
