Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of the washing machine:
- Detergent Drawer Cleaning: The detergent drawer should be cleaned regularly (every 4-5 washing cycles) to prevent detergent accumulation. This involves removing the drawer, washing it with lukewarm water, and cleaning the siphon.
- Loading Door and Drum Cleaning: To prevent odors and residue buildup, the loading door and drum should be cleaned regularly. If the machine has a "Drum Cleaning" program, it should be used. Otherwise, a 90-Cotton program with descaling agent can be run. After cleaning, the bellows should be dried with a clean cloth.
- Water Inlet Filters Cleaning: Filters at the end of the water inlet valves and at the tap connection should be cleaned regularly to prevent foreign substances from entering the machine. This involves closing the water taps, removing the hoses, and cleaning the filters with a brush.
- Drain Pump Filter Cleaning: The drain pump filter should be cleaned every 2 months or when water does not drain. This involves opening the filter cover, draining residual water, and cleaning the filter. Metal-tipped tools should not be used to remove the filter cover.
- Machine Body and Control Panel Cleaning: The machine body and control panel should be cleaned with soapy water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents, using a soft cloth. Abrasive materials or sponges should not be used.
- Frost Prevention: If the machine is exposed to freezing temperatures, the drain pump filter should be opened, and the water drained to prevent damage.
- Rust Stains: Foreign metal particles can cause rust stains in the drum. These should be cleaned with stainless steel cleaning agents, not steel wool.
- Long-term Storage: If the machine will not be used for an extended period, it should be unplugged, water taps closed, and the drain pump filter cleaned.
