Caring for your appliance drum

Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours from forming.

Cleaning the pump

The wasdher-dryer is fitted with a self-cleaning pump which does not require any maintenance. Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the protective pre- chamber at the base of the pump.

Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the appliance.

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.
