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.
•Thewasher-dryerhasa“AutoClean”programmeforits
internal parts that must be run with no load in the drum.
To help the wash cycle you may want to use either the
detergent (i.e. a quantity 10% the quantity specified
for lightly-soiled garments) or special additives to clean
the washer-dryer. We recommend running a cleaning
programme every 40 wash cycles.
To start the programme press button A for 5 seconds (see
figure).
The programme will start automatically and will run for
about 70 minutes. To stop the cycle press the START/
PAUSE button.
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. 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.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. using a screwdriver,
remove the cover panel on
the lower front part of the
washer-dryer (see figure);
2. unscrew the lid by
rotating it anti-clockwise
(see figure): a little water
may trickle out. This is
perfectly normal;
3. clean the inside thoroughly;
4. screw the lid back on;
5. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely
in place before you push it onto 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.
! Never use second-hand hoses.
