electricity supplies

 

• 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 solvents or abrasives.

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer

Remove the dispenser by raising it and pulling it out (see figure).

Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated frequently.

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 maintenance.

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.

￿Never use second-hand hoses.
