15. Cleaning
This machine is equipped with a programme for
automatic cleaning. This programme features a
higher water level and maintains a temperature
of at least 72 °C for more than five minutes
during the cleaning phase. The machine is
then thoroughly rinsed several times. We
recommend running this programme when the
machine is new and then once a month or as
often as you feel necessary.
NOTE!
When running the Cleaning programme, the
drum and detergent compartment must be
empty. Lift the insert out of the detergent
compartment and clean the detergent
compartment before starting the machine.
The Allergy Cotton, Allergy Synthetic and
Cleaning programmes have been developed
together with the Swedish Asthma and Allergy
Association (Astmaoch Allergiförbundet).
