Do this separately from the laundry wash.
Maintenance wash
With the low temperature programmes it is possible that
some detergent stays in the drum. Make regularly a main-
tenance wash. To do this:
• Empty the laundry from the drum.
• Set the hottest cotton wash programme
• Use a correct quantity of powder detergent with biolog-
ical properties.
After each wash, keep the door open for a while to prevent
mould and to let unpleasant smells go out.
Drum
Regularly examine the drum to prevent limescale and rust
particles.
Only use special products to remove rust particles from
the drum.
To do this:
• Clean the drum with special product for stainless steel.
• Start a short programme for cotton at the maximum
temperature with a small quantity of detergent.
Door seal
Regularly examine the seal
and remove all objects
from the inner part.
Detergent dispenser
To clean the dispenser:
• Press the lever and pull
the dispenser out.
• Remove the top part of
the liquid additive com-
partment.
Clean all the parts with
water.
• Clean the dispenser re-
cess with a brush.
• Put back the dispenser in the recess.
Drain pump
Regularly examine the drain pump and make sure
that it is clean.
Clean the pump if:
• The appliance does not drain the water.
• The drum cannot turn.
• The appliance makes an unusual noise because of the
blockage of the drain pump.
