Prevent detergent residue from
building up and odours from forming
by following these instructions:
Notes
■
Ensure the room in which the
washing machine is set up is well
ventilated.
■
Leave the door and detergent
dispenser tray open slightly when
the washing machine is not in use.
■
Occasionally run a wash using the
Cottons 60 °C
programme and
powder detergent.
Machine housing/control
panel
■
Wipe the housing and the control
panel with a soft, damp cloth.
■
Remove the detergent residue
immediately.
■
Do not clean with a water jet.
Drum
Use chlorine-free cleaning agents, do
not use steel wool.
If there are odours in the washing
machine, or to clean the drum, run the
Drum clean
90 °C
programme without
laundry. Add washing powder.
Descaling
Descaling should not be necessary if
the detergent is measured out correctly.
However, if it is required, follow the
manufacturer's instructions for the
descaling agent. Suitable descalers can
be obtained via our website or from
i-Dos detergent draw and its
housing

Emptying the dispensers:
The dispensers have emptying
outlets with removable sealing plugs
at the front. To empty the
dispensers, first remove the drawer
handle as shown below:
a) Pull out the detergent drawer.
b) Pull the catch (A) on the back of
the drawer handle (in the centre
at the bottom) slightly towards
you. This unlocks the drawer
handle (B), which you can then
pull off by lifting it upwards.
c) To empty the dispensers,
carefully pull off each of the
sealing plugs and empty the
contents into a suitable container.
d) Then push the sealing plugs
back in completely.
