Maintenance Wash With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside the drum. We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis. To run a maintenance wash: The drum should be empty of laundry. Select the hottest cotton wash programme. Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder (such as Ariel Futur). P0038 Cleaning the pump The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if · the machine does not empty and/or spin · the machine makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. Proceed as follows: · Disconnect the appliance. · If necessary wait until the water has cooled down. · Open the pump door. External cleaning Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thoroughly. Cleaning the dispenser drawer The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly. Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder. P1114 · Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage. · Pull out the emergency emptying hose, place it in the 16 container and remove its cap. · When no more water comes out, unscrew the pump cover and remove it. Always keep a cloth nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the cover. Cleaning the water inlet filters If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filters may become clogged.

Screw the water inlet hoses back on and reposition the emergency emptying hoses after having put the cap on again. When you intend to start the machine up again, make sure that the room temperature is above 0°C. Important! · Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat.
