Cleaning and care
Cleaning the drum
Washing at low temperatures and/or
using liquid detergent can cause bacte‐
ria and unpleasant odours to build up in
the washing machine. In order to clean
the drum and also to prevent unpleas‐
ant odours building up, run a pro‐
gramme with a temperature of at least
60°C using powder detergent once a
month or when the Hygiene info light
comes on.
External casing and fascia
panel
Disconnect the machine from
the mains electricity supply and
withdraw the plug from the socket
before cleaning the machine.
The washing machine must not
be hosed down.
Clean the casing with a mild non-
abrasive cleaning agent or soap and
water using a well wrung-out cloth.
Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
The drum can be cleaned using a
suitable proprietary stainless steel
cleaning agent following the manu‐
facturer's instructions on the packag‐
ing.
Do not use solvents, abrasive
cleaners, glass cleaners or all-pur‐
pose cleaning agents. These might
damage plastic surfaces and other
components because of the chemi‐
cals they contain.

Cleaning the detergent dis‐
penser drawer
Washing at low temperatures and the
use of liquid detergent can lead to a
build-up of mould and bacteria in the
detergent dispenser drawer.
For hygiene reasons, clean the entire
drawer at regular intervals.
Pull out the detergent dispenser
drawer until a resistance is felt. Press
down the release button and at the
same time pull the drawer right out of
the machine.
Clean the detergent drawer with
warm water.
