5.1 Cleaning the Detergent Dispenser

Periodically remove and clean the detergent dispenser drawer to prevent residue buildup. Rinse it under running water and dry before reinserting.

5.2 Cleaning the Drum

Run a 'Tub Clean' cycle regularly to remove detergent residue and odors from the drum. You can also wipe the drum interior and door gasket with a damp cloth after each use.

5.3 Cleaning the Drain Pump Filter

The drain pump filter, located at the bottom right of the appliance, should be cleaned regularly to prevent blockages and ensure proper drainage. If not cleaned, the machine may display errors during draining or stop mid-cycle. To clean:

1. Open the cover at the bottom right.
2. Place a shallow container to collect any residual water.
3. Carefully unscrew and remove the filter.
4. Clean the filter thoroughly of lint and debris.
5. Screw the filter back in securely and close the cover.

Note: The door gasket and drum interior may be hot after a cycle, especially after drying. Exercise caution when cleaning.

6. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter. For more complex problems, contact customer support.

6.1 Machine Stops During Cycle

If the machine is paused and left for approximately 10 minutes, it may power off and lose the selected program. Restart the machine and re-select your desired cycle.

6.2 Drainage Issues or Cycle Not Completing

This is often caused by a blocked drain pump filter. Refer to Section 5.3 for instructions on how to clean the filter. Regular cleaning of the filter is essential.

6.3 Lint on Dark Clothes After Drying

Washer dryers do not typically have a separate lint filter like dedicated tumble dryers. To minimize lint transfer:

• Clean the door gasket and drum thoroughly after drying, especially after drying towels or light-colored items.
• Run a 'Tub Clean' cycle or a high-temperature empty wash cycle periodically.
• Consider washing and drying dark items separately or after a cycle with neutral-colored items to collect residual lint.
