PART 7: CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Prior to commencing maintenance, disconnect the power plug from the power socket or disengage the
electrical circuit to which the washing machine is connected and turn off the water supply taps.
WARNING!
It is forbidden to use solvents as they could damage the washing machine and, furthermore, toxic fumes
are emitted that could explode.
Do not expose the washing machine to dripping or spraying water or any another liquid.
It is forbidden to use cleaning agents containing PCMX for cleaning the washing machine.
Cleaning and maintenance of the outer surface of the washing machine
Proper maintenance of the washing machine may extend its lifetime. If necessary, wipe the outer surface with
a soft sponge dipped in water with a small amount of neutral non-abrasive cleaning agent. Immediately wipe
dry using a clean dry cloth. Do not use sharp objects that could scratch the outer surface.
NOTE:
It is forbidden to use formic acid, its substitutes or other similar substances.
Clean the drum
Rust that forms inside the drum should be removed immediately using a chlorine-free cleaning agent. Never
use steel wool.

1. Disconnect the power plug from the power socket.
2. Wash the water supply valve with warm water to release the water supply hose.
3. Remove the water supply hose and dip it in warm water.
4. Pour warm water into the drum of the washing machine and wait 10 minutes.

If you will be using the washing machine, make sure that the ambient temperature is above zero.
