Cleaning and care
Cleaning the cabinet
Proper maintenance of the washing machine can extend its working
life. The surface can be cleaned with diluted non-abrasive neutral
detergents when necessary. If there is any water overflow, use a
damp cloth to wipe it off immediately.
No sharp items should be used during cleaning.
Cleaning the drum
Any rust left inside the drum by metal articles should be removed immediately with
chlorine-free detergents.
Never use steel wool.
Cleaning the door seal and glass
Wipe the glass and seal after each wash to remove lint and stains. If lint builds up it
can cause leaks. Remove any coins, buttons and other objects from the seal after
each wash.
NOTE!
Never use formic acid and its diluted solvents or or the
like, such as alcohol, solvents or chemical products.
WARNING!
Before starting maintenance, please unplug the machine
and close the tap.
NOTE!
• Do not put laundry in the washing machine during drum
cleaning.
