Care and cleaning

Important! You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.

Descaling

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the ma- chine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer's in- structions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.

Maintenance Wash

With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside the drum.

We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.

To run a maintenance wash:

•The drum should be empty of laundry.

•Select the hottest cotton wash programme.

•Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the dispenser drawer

The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.

If necessary, the whole de- tergent drawer can be tak- en out of the machine for cleaning. You need to pull it firmly outwards, so that it comes free of retaining stop.

To remove the siphon at the inside edge of the drawer for cleaning, you need to press it inwards and pull it upwards at the same time. Flush it out un- der a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder. When you put it back, press it downwards until you hear a distinct click.
