Extra cleaning

Carrying out a hot wash (70°C or above) with powder detergent approx. once every six weeks will help to en- sure that no deposits build up in the machine. These can occur when wash- ing is mainly done at low temperatures, and also lead to unpleasant smells. If you have no reason to wash laundry oc- casionally at this high temperature, then carry out a 95°C Cottons programme as a cleaning cycle with a biological pow- der detergent and no laundry, at regu- lar intervals.
