Cleaning and care

Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer housing

Clean the siphon.

1. Remove the siphon from compartment and rinse under warm running water. Clean the siphon tube in the same way.

2. Replace the siphon.

If starching frequently, thoroughly clean the siphon and siphon tube regularly. A build-up of starch will cause them to get clogged.

Use a bottle brush to remove detergent residues and limescale from the jets inside the detergent dispenser drawer housing.

Descaling the machine

If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine should not need to be descaled. If, however, you do wish to descale the machine only use proprietary non-corrosive descaling agents and strictly observe the instructions on the packaging.
