5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Important – Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance procedure, the plug must
be disconnected from the power supply socket.
5.1 CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE
Regular, thorough cleaning will keep your appliance looking good.
Clean the exterior of the appliance with soap and water only, then dry thoroughly with
a soft cloth.
The plastic parts should just be wiped with a damp cloth.
Do not scrape with pointed objects, or use solvents or products containing abrasive
substances because they damage the surfaces.
For reasons of safety, never spray the washing machine with jets of water.
5.2 CLEANING THE DRUM
Remove any rust marks from the drum using a stainless-steel cleaner, or very fine
sandpaper for particularly stubborn cases.
For descaling the washing machine use only brand-name descalers which contain an
anti-corrosion agent for washing machines.
Always follow the producer's instructions with regard to use and dosages.
After descaling or removing rust from the drum, carry out a few rinse cycles to
remove all acid residues which might damage the appliance. Never use clean-
ers which contain solvents. There is the risk of the formation of vapours which
might catch fire and explode.
5.3 CLEANING THE DOOR GASKET
Check regularly that there are no paper clips, buttons, nails or pins in the folds of the door
gasket.
