Clean the appliance with mild soap and

warm water only. Fully dry all the

surfaces.

CAUTION!

Do not use alcohol, solvents

or chemical products.

CAUTION!

Do not clean the metal

15.2 

Descaling

If the water hardness in your

area is high or moderate, we

recommend that you use a

water descaling product for

washing machines.

Regularly examine the drum to check for

limescale.
The regular detergents already contain

water softening agents, but we

recommend to run a cycle with empty

drum and a descaling product

occasionally.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

temperature programmes can cause

detergent deposits, fluff residues,

bacterial growth inside the drum and the

tub. This could generate bad odours and

mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and

hygienize the inner part of the appliance,

run a maintenance wash regularly (at

least once a month):

1.

Remove all laundry from the drum.

2.

Run a cotton programme with the

highest temperature with a small

quantity of powder detergent.

all objects from the inner part.

rust particles.
For a complete cleaning:

for stainless steel.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

detergent , in order to rinse out any

left residues.
