Build-up of rust

The drum is made of stainless steel. Water containing iron or ferrous
foreign objects (e.g., paper clips, iron knobs, or iron shavings), which
are introduced with the laundry, can lead to rust formation in the
drum. Clean the drum regularly in this case and if rust occurs, remove
it immediately with a proprietary stainless-steel care product. Check
the door seals for ferrous residues and clean thoroughly as described
above. This must be carried out regularly.
