CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Appliance exterior and control panel
•
Clean using a neutral household detergent and a
damp cloth (do not use abrasive products or
solvents).
•
Dry with a soft cloth.
Appliance interior
•
If you never or seldom wash your laundry at
95°C, we recommend to occasionally run a 95°C
programme without laundry, adding a small
amount of detergent, to keep the interior of the
appliance clean.
•
Leave the door open for some time after each
washing so that the interior can dry.

•
Check the seal folds for foreign bodies
periodically.

Check and clean the filter regularly, at least two or
three times a year (see “Removing The Filter”).

same type (available from After-Sales Service or
