14. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
Disconnect the appliance from the mains
supply before you clean it.
14.1 Descaling
The water we use contains limescale. If it
becomes necessary, use a water softener
to remove limescales.
Use a special product made for washing
machines. Obey the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the manufactur-
er.
Do this separately from the laundry wash.

14.2 External cleaning

Clean the appliance only with soap and
warm water. Fully dry all the surfaces.
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol, solvents or
chemical products.

14.3 Maintenance wash

With the low temperature programmes it
is possible that some detergent stays in
the drum. Make regularly a maintenance
wash. To do this:
• Empty the laundry from the drum.
• Set the hottest cotton wash pro-

• Use a correct quantity of powder deter-
gent with biological properties.
After each wash, keep the door open for
a while to prevent mould and to let un-
pleasant smells go out.
14.4 Door seal
Regularly examine the seal and remove all
objects from the inner part.
14.5 Drum
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
limescale and rust particles.
Only use special products to remove rust
particles from the drum.
To do this:
• Clean the drum with special product for
stainless steel.
• Start a short programme for cotton at
the maximum temperature with a small
quantity of detergent.
