Run the programme without any laundry in the machine. Before starting the programme, put max. 100

g of powder anti-limescale into the main wash detergent compartment(compartment nr. 2). If the anti-limescale is in tablet form, put only one tablet into compartment nr. 2. Dry the inside of the bellow with a clean piece of cloth after the programme has come to an end.
