6 Maintenance and cleaning
Service life of the product extends and
frequently faced problems decrease if cleaned
at regular intervals.
Cleaning the detergent drawer
Clean the detergent drawer at regular intervals
(every 4-5 washing cycles) as shown below
in order to prevent accumulation of powder
detergent in time.
1. Press the dotted point on the siphon
in the softener compartment and pull
towards you until the compartment is
removed from the machine.
C
If more than normal amount of water and
softener mixture starts to gather in the
softener compartment, the siphon must
be cleaned.
2. Wash the detergent drawer and the
siphon with plenty of lukewarm water in a
washbasin. Wear protective gloves or use
an appropriate brush to avoid touching of
the residues in the drawer with your skin
when cleaning.
3. Insert the drawer back into its place after
cleaning and make sure that it is seated
well.
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. Before starting the programme, put max.
100 g of powder anti-limescale into the main
wash detergent compartment (compartment
nr. II). If the anti-limescale is in tablet form, put
only one tablet into compartment nr. II. Dry the
inside of the bellow with a clean piece of cloth
after the programme has come to an end.
C
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in every 2
months.
C
Use an anti-limescale suitable for the
washing machines.
After every washing make sure that no foreign
substance is left in the drum.
If the holes on the bellow shown in the figure
is blocked, open the holes using a toothpick.
C
Foreign metal substances in your
machine will cause rust stains. Clean
the stains on the drum surface by using
cleaning agents for stainless steel. Never
use steel wool or wire wool.
Cleaning the body and
control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with soapy
water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents as
necessary, and dry with a soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the
control panel.
A
Never use sponge or scrub materials.
These will damage the painted and
plastic surfaces.
Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water intake
valve at the rear of the machine and also at
the end of each water intake hose where they
are connected to the tap. These filters prevent
foreign substances and dirt in the water to
enter the washing machine. Filters should be
cleaned as they do get dirty.
