6.2 Cleaning the loading door and the drum
Residues of softener, detergent and dirt may accumulate in your machine in time and may cause unpleasant
odours and washing complaints. To avoid this, use the Drum Cleaning programme. If your machine is not
featured with Drum Cleaning programme, use Cottons-90 programme and select Additional Water or
Extra Rinse auxiliary functions as well. Run the programme without any laundry in the machine. Before
starting the programme, put half a cup (max. 100 g) of a suitable anti-limescale powder 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.
