■
External cleaning
Clean the surface of the washing machine with a soft cloth. Do not use
solvents such as alcohol or benzine.
■
Descaling
The water in some areas is hard and contains lime, so it is
recommended to use a water softening agent periodically, or use a
descaler according to the descaler manufacturers' instructions. Do this
separately from any laundry washing.
■
After each wash
Leave the door open for a while to dry the drum. This helps to prevent
the growth of mold and stagnant smells forming inside the washing
machine.
■
Maintenance wash
It is recommended to run the Tub Clean program regularly. Using this
program keeps the drum clean and prevents the growth of mold.
