Clean the inside of the washing machine at
least once a month. Put 1 liter of bleach in the
drum. Select the High water level and the Stain
Removal program. Let the washing machine

This cleaning should be done to prevent spots
in clothes, caused by accumulated waste in the

and softener.

be changed, call Frigidaire Service Center. Do
not forget to replace the filter in the hose and
open the faucet again. The machine should
