13.4 Descaling
If the water in your area is hard or
medium hard, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing
machines.
Regularly examine the drum to check for
limescale.
The regular detergents already contain water
softening agents, but we recommend to run a
cycle with empty drum and a descaling
product occasionally.
Always follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
13.5 Maintenance wash
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature and short programmes can
cause detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth and biofilm formation inside
the drum and the tub. This could generate
bad odours and mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and hygienize the
inner part of the appliance, run a
maintenance wash at least once a month:
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run a cotton programme with the highest
temperature with a small quantity of
powder detergent or, if available, run the
Machine Clean programme.
13.6 Door seal
This appliance is designed with a self
cleaning draining system, allowing light fluff
fibers that fall off the clothes to be drained out
with the water. Regularly examine the seal.
Coins, buttons, other small items can be
recovered at the end of the cycle.
Clean it when needed, using ammonia cream
cleanser agent without scratching the seal
surface.
Always obey the instructions that you find
on the packaging of the product.
13.7 Cleaning the drum
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
unwanted deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to
rusting foreign body in the washing or tap
water containing iron
Clean the drum with special products for
stainless steel.
Always follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
Do not clean the drum with acidic
descaling products, scouring products
containing chlorine or iron or steel wool.
For a thorough clean:
1. Clean the drum with special products for
stainless steel.
Always follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
2. Remove all laundry from the drum.
3. Run a short cotton programme at high
temperature with empty drum and with a
small quantity of powder detergent or, if
available, run the Machine Clean
programme. If your appliance can be
connected to Wi-Fi, the special
programme Machine Clean is also
downloadable through the APP.
