Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product extends and
frequently faced problems decrease if
cleaned at regular intervals.

Cleaning the detergent drawer

Clean the detergent drawer at regular
intervals (every 4-5 washing cycles) as shown
below in order to prevent accumulation of
powder detergent in time.
1. Press the dotted point on the siphon
in the softener compartment and pull
towards you until the compartment is
removed from the machine.
C
If more than normal amount of water and
softener mixture starts to gather in the
softener compartment, the siphon must
be cleaned.
2. Wash the detergent drawer and the
siphon with plenty of lukewarm water
in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves
or use an appropriate brush to avoid
touching of the residues in the drawer
with your skin when cleaning.
3. Insert the drawer back into its place after
cleaning and make sure that it is seated
well.
Cleaning the loading
door and the drum
Residues of softener, detergent and dirt
may accumulate in your machine in time
and may cause unpleasant odours and
washing complaints. To avoid this, use
the Drum Cleaning programme. If your
machine is not featured with Drum Cleaning
programme, use Cottons-90 programme
and select Additional Water or Extra Rinse
auxiliary functions as well. Before starting
the programme, put max. 100 g of powder
anti-limescale into the main wash detergent
compartment (compartment nr. II). If the anti-
limescale is in tablet form, put only one tablet
into compartment nr. II. Dry the inside of the
bellow with a clean piece of cloth after the
programme has come to an end.
C
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in every
2 months.
C
Use an anti-limescale suitable for the
washing machines.
After every washing make sure that no
foreign substance is left in the drum.
If the holes on the bellow shown in the figure
is blocked, open the holes using a toothpick.
C Foreign metal substances in your
machine will cause rust stains. Clean
the stains on the drum surface by using
cleaning agents for stainless steel. Never
use steel wool or wire wool.
Cleaning the body
and control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with soapy
water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents as
necessary, and dry with a soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the
control panel.
A Never use sponge or scrub materials.
These will damage the painted and
plastic surfaces.

Cleaning the water intake filters

There is a filter at the end of each water
intake valve at the rear of the machine and
also at the end of each water intake hose
where they are connected to the tap. These
filters prevent foreign substances and dirt
in the water to enter the washing machine.
Filters should be cleaned as they do get dirty.
1. Close the taps.
