Cleaning the washer´s exterior

WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION
To avoid risk of explosion never clean the washer
with flammable solvents.
Clean the washer´s exterior surfaces when required as
follows:
- Use hot soapy water or a mild (non-abrasive) cleaning
agent.
- Dry with a soft towel.
- Remove residue immediately.
- Do not use high pressure spray.
Cleaning the drum
Metallic debris left in the drum can produce rust spots on
the drum. Never use steel wool to try to remove these.
Use a chlorine-free cleaning agent and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Descaling the washer
Provided that you use correct amounts of detergent with
your wash loads, descaling is not necessary. If descaling
the washer drum does become necessary, please follow
the descaling product manufacturer’s instructions.
Small amounts of descaling agent can be used to
remove white spots on the washer drum caused by lime
or mineral deposits or small amounts of rust caused by
metal objects left in the drum.
NOTICE:
Descaling agents contain acids which may
attack parts of the washing machine and may discolor
the laundry.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser tray
If there is a buildup of residual detergent or additives, or
if the softener compartment is not rinsed out well
enough, it may be helpful to clean the dispenser.
1.
Open the detergent dispenser tray fully. Press down
on the drawer catch (1) and pull the tray (2) from the
washer.
2.
Remove the insert (3) by grasping it and pulling it
upwards from the detergent dispenser tray.
3.
Clean the insert and the detergent dispenser tray by
holding it under warm running water. Lightly wipe away
any remaining detergent residue.
4.
Attach the insert and slide the detergent dispenser tray
back into place and close the tray securely.
Tip:
Do not operate the washer without the detergent
dispenser tray in place and completely closed.
Cleaning the water inlet strainers
If the washer water supply slows or stops completely, the
water inlet strainer may be blocked. Cleaning is
recommended every 6 months in any event to reduce
chances of valve blockage in areas using hard water.
Normal water pressure from your home, that remains in
the supply hoses after turning off the taps, will cause a
small amount of water to drip out when you remove the
water supply hose from the back of the washer. Be sure
to close the taps completely before removing the supply
hoses to minimize the amount of water.
