14.5 Maintenance wash
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature and short programmes can
cause detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth and biofilm formation
inside the drum and the tub. This could
generate bad odours and mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and
hygienize the inner part of the appliance,
run a maintenance wash at least once a
month:
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run a cotton programme with the
highest temperature with a small
quantity of powder detergent.
14.6 Door seal
This appliance is designed with a self
cleaning draining system, allowing light
fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be
drained out with the water. Regularly
examine the seal. Coins, buttons, other
small items can be recovered at the end
of the cycle.
Clean it when needed, using ammonia
cream cleanser agent without scratching
the seal surface.
Always obey the instructions
that you find on the
packaging of the product.
14.7 Cleaning the drum
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
unwanted deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due
to rusting foreign body in the washing or
tap water containing iron.
Clean the drum with special products for
stainless steel.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
Do not clean the drum with
acidic descaling products,
scouring products containing
chlorine or iron or steel.
For a thorough clean:
1. Clean the drum with special products
for stainless steel.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
2. Run a short cotton programme at
high temperature with empty drum
and with a small quantity of powder
detergent or, if available, run the
Limpieza Máquina programme.
14.8 Cleaning the detergent
dispenser and the salt
compartment
Before cleaning, make sure
that the all compartments
are empty.
To prevent possible deposits of dried
detergent, clotted fabric softener,
formation of mould in the dispenser
drawer and/or salt fouling in the salt
compartment, once in a while carry out
the following cleaning procedure:
1. Open the drawer. Press the catch as
