Cleaning and care
To prolong the service life of the washing machine, keep it in good condition and
perform regular maintenance.
IMPORTANT!
If you frequently use a COLD wash cycle, you will need to clean the inside of
your washing machine regularly (every three months), especially if you use a
fabric softener. Liquid detergents can cause detergent scum to build up around
the outside of the drum, which cold water will not remove and which can cause
bacteria, unpleasant odours, and eventually soiling of your wash load.
• To remove scum build-up from the inside of a washing machine, run a cleaning
cycle without clothes using the Eco Cotton program and hot water.
• As a cleaning agent, use a commercially available washing machine cleaning
product (such as Trimat Washing Machine Cleaner) according to the
instructions on the product), or use a mix of bicarbonate of soda (½ cup) and
white household vinegar (2 cups).
WARNING!
For any type of cleaning and maintenance, make sure the washing machine is
disconnected from the mains power supply and the water tap is closed.
Cleaning the cabinet (when required)
• Use a soft cloth to wipe any water or dirt off the washer housing.
• To remove dirt and stains, use a mild detergent solution and a damp cloth. Squeeze
it almost dry to avoid leaving water residues.
Cleaning the drum (when required)
• Make sure all laundry items are removed from the drum, then wipe it clean with a
soft dry or damp cloth.
• If you notice any rust residues left inside the drum from washing items with metal
parts (such as buttons or zippers), wipe the residues off immediately with chlorine-
free detergent. Never use steel wool.
WARNING!
Do not use any solvents, alcohol, harsh chemicals, alkaline or abrasive cleaning
agents, or sharp objects, to avoid damaging the surface. Do not spray water directly
onto the washer housing.
