12.2 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 check for

limescale.

Regular detergents already contain water

softening agents, but we recommend to

run a cycle with an empty drum and a

descaling product occasionally.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

12.3 Maintenance wash

The repeated and prolonged use of low

temperature programmes can cause

detergent deposits, fluff residues,

bacterial growth inside the drum and the

tub. This could generate bad odours and

mildew. To eliminate these deposits and

clean the inner part of the appliance, run

a maintenance wash regularly (at least

once a month).

Refer to Cleaning the drum

chapter.

12.4 Door seal

Regularly examine the seal and remove

all objects from the inner part.

12.5 Cleaning the drum

Regularly examine the drum to prevent

rust forming.

Clean the drum with special products for

stainless steel.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

For a thorough clean:

• Remove all laundry from the

drum.

• Run a Cotton programme with the

highest temperature. Add a small

quantity of powder detergent into

the empty drum, in order to rinse

out any left residues.

Occasionally, at the end of a

cycle the display may show

the icon : this is a

recommendation to perform

the “drum cleaning”.

12.6 Cleaning the detergent

dispenser

To prevent possible deposits of dried

detergent or clotted fabric softener

and/or formation of mould in the

detergent dispenser drawer, once in a

while carry out the following cleaning

procedure:

1. Open the drawer. Press the catch

downwards as indicated in the

picture and pull it out.

2. Remove the top part of the additive

compartment to aid cleaning and

position.
