11.2 Descaling
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you use
a water descaling product for washing
machines.
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
limescale and rust particles.
To remove rust particles use only special
products for washing machines. Do this
separately from the laundry wash.

that you find on the
packaging of the product.

With the low temperature programmes it is
possible that some detergent stays in the
drum. Perform a maintenance wash
regularly. To do this:
• Remove all laundry from the drum.
• Select the cotton programme with the
highest temperature with a small
quantity of detergent.
11.4 Door seal
Regularly examine the seal and remove all
objects from the inner part.

Regularly examine the drum to prevent
limescale and rust particles. Only use
special products to remove rust particles
from the drum.
We suggest you to:
1. Clean the drum with special product
for stainless steel.
2. Start a short programme for cotton at
the maximum temperature with a
small quantity of detergent.
