Maintenance
Cleaning your washing
machine
● Clean the outside of your washing
machine with a soft cloth and mild
detergent such as kitchen detergent
and soap water.
*
Don’t splash water over the washing
machine.
*
Do not use cream cleansers, thinners
or products containing alcohol or
kerosene.
Cleaning your
detergent drawer
First, remove the detergent drawer by
lifting and pulling at the same time.
Softener cover
● Wash out old detergent from the drawer
with water. (Use a cloth to clean the
washing machine.)
*
Residue detergent soon builds up if you
don’t clean the drawer regularly, and
can develop mould.
Cleaning your washing
machine door seal and
window
(see also page 6)
● Wipe the window and seal after each

● The door opens at different angles if the
drum seal is wet.
● Remove any coins, buttons and other
objects from the door seal after each
wash.
