Cleaning and care

Disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity supply and with- draw the plug from the socket prior to cleaning the machine.

Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all-pur- pose cleaning agents.

These might damage plastic sur- faces and other components be- cause of the chemicals they contain.

The washing machine must not be hosed down.

Cleaning the washing machine
