Cleaning and servicing

To keep your appliance working effi-
ciently for a long time, it is important
to clean and maintain it carefully.

16.1 Tips on appliance care

Follow the tips for appliance care to
ensure your appliance works cor-
rectly in the long term.

Wipe down the
housing and the
control panel

The appliance
parts remain
clean and hy-
gienic.

with nothing but
water and a
damp cloth.
Remove all de-
tergent residue,
spray residue or
other residues
immediately.

Fresh deposits
are easier to re-
move without
leaving any
residue.

Keep the appli-
ance door and
detergent drawer
open after use.

This allows the
residual water to
dry, reducing
odours in the ap-
pliance.

16.2 Cleaning the drum

If you often wash at a washing tem-
perature of 40 °C and lower or the
appliance has not been used for a
long period, clean the drum.

CAUTION

Risk of injury!

Permanently washing at low temper-
atures and a lack of ventilation for
the appliance may damage the drum
and cause injury.

Regularly run a programme for
cleaning the drum or wash at tem-
peratures of at least 60 °C.

Leave the appliance to dry after
every operation with the door
open, and leave the detergent
drawer to dry.

Run the 

Drum Clean

 programme

without laundry.
Add washing powder.
