13.5 Maintenance wash

The repeated and prolonged use of low

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

clean the inner part of the appliance, run

a maintenance wash regularly (at least

once a month).

Refer to "Cleaning the drum"

paragraph.

13.6 Door seal with double lip

trap

This appliance is designed with a self

cleaning draining system, allowing light

fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be

drained out with the water. Regularly

examine the seal. Coins, buttons, other

small items can be recovered at the end

of the cycle.

Clean it when needed, using ammonia

cream cleanser agent without scratching

the seal surface.

Always obey the instructions

that you find on the

packaging of the product.

13.7 Cleaning the drum

Regularly examine the drum to prevent

unwanted deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due

to rusting foreign body in the washing or

tap water containing iron
Clean the drum with special products for

stainless steel.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

Do not clean the drum with

acidic descaling products,

scouring products containing

chlorine or iron or steel wool.

For a thorough clean:
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.

2. Run a Cottons programme with the

highest temperature.

3. Add a small quantity of powder

detergent into the empty drum, in

order to rinse out any left residues.

Occasionally, at the end of a

cycle the display may show
the icon  : this is a

recommendation to perform

the “drum cleaning”. Once

the drum cleaning has been

performed, the icon

disappears.

13.8 Cleaning the detergent

dispenser

detergent or clotted fabric softener

and/or formation of mould in the

detergent dispenser drawer, once in a

while carry out the following cleaning

procedure:
