We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
•The drum should be empty of laundry.
•Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
•Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thoroughly.
Important! Do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet.
Cleaning the dispenser drawer
The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly. Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder.
To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment should be removed.
Cleaning the drawer recess
Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess.
Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme without any clothes in the drum.
Washing drum
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to rusting foreign bodies in the washing or tap water containing iron.
