Maintenance; Cleaning The Outside Of The Appliance; Cleaning The Drum; Cleaning The Detergent Drawer - Panasonic NA-140VS4 Operating Instructions & Installation Instructions

Maintenance

Cleaning the outside of the
appliance
Clean the outside of the appliance with a
soft cloth and mild detergent, for example,
kitchen detergent, and soapy water.
WARNING
- Do NOT splash water over the
appliance.
- Do NOT use cream cleansers,
thinners, or products containing
alcohol or paraffin oil.

Cleaning the drum

If you keep using cold water in the
appliance, bacteria may build up inside
the drum and emit an odour. You can
avoid this by running the 90 °C Cotton
programme once a month. (When using a
scale remover, follow the manufacturer's
instructions.)
CAUTION
Viruses and bacteria are not killed
in water temperature of 40 °C.
Pathogens can spread via the
mingling of clothes and thus
transmit diseases.
Pathogens die at the temperature of at
least 60 °C.
NOTE
Do NOT put laundry or laundry
detergent into the appliance during
cleaning.
If you use tub cleaning detergent or
bleach, put it into the detergent drawer
before starting the wash. The appropriate
amount to be used is approximately 30 ml.
