Cleaning and maintenance

After each wash

Leave the door ajar to allow air to circulate.

Close the water tap and unplug the appliance.

Periodical cleaning

Maintenance Wash

With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build
up of residues inside the drum.
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 (such as Ariel
Futur).

Exterior

Clean the outside of the cabinet with soap and water only. Rinse with
clean water and dry.
Important: do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products
to clean the cabinet.

Detergent dispenser drawer

After a while,
detergents and
fabric softeners
leave deposits in
the drawer.
Clean the drawer,
from time to
time, by rinsing it
under a running
tap.
