pliance from the mains supply.
11.1 External cleaning

warm water. Fully dry all the surfaces.

10.4 Ecological hints
• Set a programme without the prewash
phase to wash laundry with normal
soil.
• Always start a washing programme
with the maximum load of laundry.
• If necessary, use a stain remover when
you set a programme with a low tem-
perature.
• To use the correct quantity of the de-
tergent, check the water hardness of
your domestic system
10.5 Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing ma-
chines. In areas where the water hard-
ness is soft it is not necessary to use a
water softener.
To know the water hardness in your area,
contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of the water
softener. Obey the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
11.2 Descaling
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing ma-
chines.
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
limescale and rust particles.
To remove rust particles use only special
products for washing machine. Do this
separately from the laundry wash.
Always obey the instructions that
you find on the packaging of the
product.
