Rinse holes under the agitator
If you think that objects such as nails, paper
clips, needles or the like may have fallen
into the wash drum, you should check un-
der the agitator. Such objects can rust and
cause spots on clothing. Nails and other
sharp objects can cause holes in fabrics.
Do as follows:
1. Use a screwdriver or similar tool.
2. Insert the screwdriver into the central
hole on the agitator and twist the screwdriv-
er handle gently to the left.
3. With your other hand, grasp the agita-
tor and pull it towards you as shown in the
illustration.
4. Lift the agitator.
5. Remove any objects.
6. Place the agitator in the mounting hole
with the F-mark towards you. Ensure that
all the agitator fasteners are in their holes
in the drum. Push it away from you until it
catches.
If you have hard water
If you live in an area with hard water, the
washer drum may develop a greyish-white
coating. To get rid of this, empty a sachet
of citric acid, approximately 20 grams, into
the washer drum and run the White Cot-
ton wash at 95° C. You can find citric acid
among the spices, etc. at your local super-
market.
