Bodywork
The outside or the machine can be cleaned with
warm water and a neutral non-abrasive household
detergent. Wipe with clean water and dry after
cleaning.
Important : do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.
It is advisable, from time to time, to carry out a
complete cycle without a washing load, adding a
decalcifying product.
The detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove.
Exert a pressure on the brooches located on each
side of the detergent dispenser and pull it up (fig.1
and fig.2).
Clean the detergent dispenser under running water
with a brush or a piece of rag (fig.3). Check that the
siphons located at the back of the detergent
dispenser are not obstructed (fig.4).
Replace the detergent dispenser in the notches
until the hanging (fig.5).
The drain filter
The machine has got a mecanic filter located on
the front part to collect lint and small objects
(toothpins, coins, pins, etc) inadvertently left in the
clothes. It is essential that this filter is cleaned
regularly.
Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of
articles washed (cleaning should be more frequent
if the articles have no hem and tend to fray).
Open the flapdoor (fig.6)
To drain the residual water :
Place below a container not very high up with
straight edges. To complete the draining, turn
the cap of the drain filter until its vertical position
and the residual water will be released (fig.7).
To clean the filter :
Turn the filter anticlockwise and get it away
(fig.8).
Clean it with current water. Replace the filter
and screw down it clockwise. Then, close the
flapdoor.
