Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you
must DISCONNECTthe appliance from the electricity
supply.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good
idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the
machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing,
and according to the softening powder manufacturers
instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of
lime deposits.
After each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to...

• Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and
place the latter back in its seat.
•  Screw the pump cover fully in.
• Close the pump door.
Wa r n i n g
When the appliance is in use and depending on the
programme selected there can be hot water in the pump.
Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle,
always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle,
and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is
securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it....
