11. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
11.1 External cleaning
Clean the appliance only with soap and
warm water. Fully dry all the surfaces.
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol, solvents
or chemical products.
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 machine. Do this
separately from the laundry wash.
Always obey the instructions
that you find on the
packaging of the product.
11.3 Maintenance wash
With the low temperature programmes it
is possible that some detergent stays in
the drum. Make regularly a maintenance
wash. To do this:
If you set a programme or an
option that ends with water
in the drum, the AUTO OFF
function doesn't deactivate
the appliance to remind you
to drain the water.
• Remove the laundry from the drum.
• Set 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.
11.5 Cleaning the drum
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.
