Follow those instructions. 16 17 Cleaning and routine maintenance Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your washing machine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance: - Cleaning the drawer compartments. - Cleaning the filter. Transporting the appliance or long periods when appliance is not in use If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for long periods in unheated places, all remaining water must be completely removed from the hoses. Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and point it downwards into a basin until all the water has emptied out. When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order. Cleaning the drawer compartments Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the compartments for bleaching detergents and additives occasionally. A) To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but without forcing them. C) Put everything back in its proper place. Cleaning the filter The washing machine is fitted with a special filter for handling large deposits which could block the discharge hose (coins, buttons etc. ) and which can, therefore, be easily retrieved. The cleaning operation is as follows: 1) Ease off the plinth cover as shown in picture. 2) Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops in the vertical position. 3) After cleaning, replace by turning the notch on the end of the filter clockwise. 4) Insert the inner hinges of the plinth in the special grooves and slide over to the right to fix in position securely. Attention: if the filter needs cleaning while there is washing still in the drum, follow the instructions on the following page to empty the water. This will prevent excessive loss of water via the filter. 18 19 Investigating malfunctions What might be the cause of. . . Foreign bodies in filter Leaking gasket between tap and water inlet hose.

Note: The use of environmentally-friendly, phosphate-free detergents can have the following effects: - waste water from rinsing may be cloudier because of the presence of zeolites held in suspension, without the rinse performance being adversely affected; - presence of white powder (zeolites) on laundry after washing, which is not absorbed by the fabric and does not alter the colour of the fabric. - The presence of foam in the final rinsing water is not necessarily an indication of poor rinsing.
