accumulation of powder detergent in
time.

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.

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

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
