6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Important – Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance procedure, the plug must be disconnected
from the power supply socket.
6.1 CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE
Regular, thorough cleaning will keep your appliance looking good.
Clean the exterior of the appliance with soap and water only, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
The plastic parts should just be wiped with a damp cloth.
Do not scrape with pointed objects, or use solvents or products containing abrasive substances because
they damage the surfaces.
For reasons of safety, never spray the washer-dryer with jets of water.
6.2 CLEANING THE DRUM
Remove any rust marks from the drum using a stainless steel cleaner, or very fine sandpaper for particu-
larly stubborn cases.
For descaling the washer-dryer use only brand-name descalers which contain an anti-corrosion agent for
washing machines.
Always follow the producer's instructions with regard to use and dosages.
After descaling or removing rust from the drum, carry out a few rinse cycles to remove all acid
residues which might damage the appliance. Never use cleaners which contain solvents. There is
the risk of the formation of vapours which might catch fire and explode.
