Descaling
The water we use contains limescale. If it be-
comes necessary, use a water softener to re-
move limescales.
Use a special product made for washing ma-
chines. Obey the instructions that you find on
the packaging of the manufacturer.
Do this separately from the laundry wash.
Maintenance wash
With the low temperature programmes it is
possible that some detergent stays in the drum.
Make regularly a maintenance wash. To do this:
• Empty the laundry from the drum.
• Set the hottest cotton wash programme
• Use a correct quantity of powder detergent
with biological properties.
After each wash, keep the door open for a
while to prevent mould and to let unpleasant
smells go out.
Drum
Regularly examine the drum to prevent lime-
scale and rust particles.
Only use special products to remove rust parti-

stainless steel.

of detergent.
