Care And Maintenance
Appliance exterior and
control panel
Clean using normal household
cleaner (do not use abrasive
products or solvents).
Dry with a soft cloth.
Door seal
Clean occasionally with a damp
cloth.
Check the seal folds for foreign
bodies periodically.
Notes:
Keep detergents and additives in a dry place and out of reach of children.
If you use descaling agents, dyes or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for washing machine use.
Descaler could contain components that can attack parts of your washing machine.
Do not use solvents (turpentine, benzine, etc.).
Do not machine wash fabrics that have been treated with solvents or flammable liquids.
You can use liquid detergent in the Prewash phase for programmes with this option. In this case
put only powder detergents in the compartment for the main wash .
When using concentrated fabric softeners, dilute with water in the detergent dispenser up to MAX
level mark.
To prevent dispensing problems when using highly concentrated powder and liquid detergents, use
the special detergent ball or bag supplied with the detergent and place it directly inside the drum.
If you use gel-type detergent, please use the powder detergent insert setting.
For Start Delay, only use powder detergent, please. Powder detergent remains in the detergent
dispenser until the programme starts, but liquid detergents can run out of the detergent dispenser.
If you use powder starch, proceed as follows:
1.
Wash your laundry using the desired wash programme.
2.
Next mix the starch with water in a cup.
3.
Set the Rinse and Spin programme, reduce the speed to ca. 800 rpm and start the programme.
4.
Pull the detergent dispenser out until you can see about 3 cm of the chamber.
5.
While the water is running into the detergent dispenser, pour the starch solution into the
chamber.
If there are starch residues in the detergent dispenser after the end of the programme, clean it if
necessary (see Care And Maintenance).
Observe also the starch manufacturer's information.
