curely to the edge of the bath or the siphon.

the retaining clip at the point where it comes
out of the housing.

cracked or kinked).

door (19) is free of foreign objects such as
buttons, paper clips, etc.

Regular cleaning

Washing machine cleaning agents for main-
taining your washing machine can be found
in well-stocked supermarkets and drugstores.
Cleaning the appliance using these products
takes place when the washing machine is
empty and is very intensive.
You should clean the appliance in this way
every 30 wash cycles to prevent limescale de-
posits and to maintain your appliance. When
doing so, please note the manufacturer in-
structions on the packaging.
Limescale deposits can be avoided us-
ing the right detergent dosage (see "The
right dosage" on page EN-26).
