Cleaning and care
56
Cleaning the porthole glass
Clean the inside of the porthole glass
from time to time and the metal cap
inside the porthole glass with a suit-
able mild cleaning agent or with
soapy water.
Dry both with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the drum
Washing at low temperatures and/or us-
ing liquid detergent can cause bacteria
and unpleasant odours to build up in
the washer-dryer. Use the Cottons
90°C programme to clean the washer-
dryer. Clean the drum no later than the
point at which the indicator light and
light up on the time display.
Cleaning the water intake filter
The washer-dryer has a filter to protect
the water intake valve. The filter at the
open end of the water inlet hose should
be checked approximately every
6months. Perform this check more of-
ten if there are frequent interruptions to
the external water supply.
First turn off the stopcock.
Unscrew the water inlet hose from the
stopcock.
Remove the rubber seal 1 from the
recess.
Hold the free end of the water inlet
hose upside down. The plastic filter 2
will fall out.
Clean the plastic filter.
Reassemble in reverse order.
Turn on the stopcock and check that
the connection is watertight. If water
drips out, tighten the connection.
Never forget to put the filter back in
place after cleaning.
