(Hygiene info)
Washing at low temperatures and/or
using liquid detergent can cause bacte‐
ria and unpleasant odours to build up in
the washing machine. Use the Mainte‐
nance wash programme to clean the
machine. Run this programme regularly
or at the latest when Hygiene info: Start a
programme with a minimum temperature of
60°C. appears in the display.
External casing and fascia
panel
Disconnect the machine from
the mains electricity supply before
cleaning or maintenance.
The washing machine must not
be hosed down.
Clean the casing and fascia panel
with a mild non-abrasive cleaning
agent or soap and water using a well
wrung-out cloth. Wipe dry with a soft
cloth.
The drum can be cleaned with a pro‐
prietary stainless steel cleaning
agent, following the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging.
Do not use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or multi-pur‐
pose cleaning agents. These could
damage plastic surfaces and other
parts.
Cleaning the detergent dis‐
penser drawer
Washing at low temperatures and the
use of liquid detergent can lead to a
build-up of mould and bacteria in the
detergent dispenser drawer.
Clean the entire drawer at regular in‐
tervals for hygiene reasons, even if
you are using the TwinDos system
exclusively.
Pull out the detergent dispenser
drawer until a resistance is felt. Press
down the release button and at the
same time pull the drawer right out of
the machine.
Clean the drawer with hot water.
