5.5 CLEAN PROGRAMME
To keep the appliance operating at peak efficiency over time, it has a CLEAN programme for regular cleaning of
the drying circuit to remove any fluff deposits.
1. After a given number of drying cycles, the CLEAN symbol lights up on the display to warn that this pro-
gramme needs to be run. The warning light remains on until the CLEAN programme is carried out. The light
goes out at the end of the programme.
2. To perform the CLEAN programme, proceed as follows:
a. Make sure that the drum is completely empty and close the door.
b. Turn the knob to the CLEAN programme (see programmes table for the exact position on the knob)
c.
Press the START/PAUSE button
The CLEAN programme can also be carried out even if the light on the display is not on.
6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Important – Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance procedure, the plug must be disconnected
from the power supply socket.
6.1 CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE
•
Regular, thorough cleaning will keep your appliance looking good.
•
Clean the exterior of the appliance with soap and water only, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
•
The plastic parts should just be wiped with a damp cloth.
•
Do not scrape with pointed objects, or use solvents or products containing abrasive substances because
they damage the surfaces.
•
For reasons of safety, never spray the washer-dryer with jets of water.
6.2 CLEANING THE DRUM
•
Remove any rust marks from the drum using a stainless steel cleaner, or very fine sandpaper for particu-
larly stubborn cases.
•
For descaling the washer-dryer use only brand-name descalers which contain an anti-corrosion agent for
washing machines.
•
Always follow the producer's instructions with regard to use and dosages.
•
After descaling or removing rust from the drum, carry out a few rinse cycles to remove all acid
residues which might damage the appliance. Never use cleaners which contain solvents. There is
the risk of the formation of vapours which might catch fire and explode.
