To access the pre-chamber:

1. take off the cover panel on the front of the machine by 
first pressing it in the centre and then pushing downwards 
on both sides until you can remove it (see figures);

2. position a container so that 
it will collect the water which 
flows out (approximately 1.5 l) 
(see figure);
3. unscrew the lid by rotating 
it in an anti-clockwise 
direction (see figure);

4. clean the inside thoroughly;
5. screw the lid back on;
6. reposition the panel, making sure the hooks are securely 
in place before you push it onto the appliance.

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.

•  Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle. This will 

limit wear on the hydraulic system in the machine and 
help to prevent leaks.

•  Unplug the appliance when cleaning it and during all 

maintenance work.

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.

To remove the drawer, press 
lever (1) and pull the drawer 
outwards (2) (see figure).
Wash it under running water; 
this procedure should be 
repeated frequently.

•  Always leave the door ajar to prevent unpleasant odours 

from forming.

The wasdher-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 protective pre-
chamber at the base of the pump.

 Make sure the wash cycle has finished and unplug the 
appliance.
