Washing Machine / User’s Manual
5.2 Cleaning the loading door and the drum
Residues of softener, detergent and dirt may accumulate
in your machine in time and may cause unpleasant odours
and washing complaints. To avoid this, use the
Drum
Cleaning
programme. If your machine is not featured with
Drum Cleaning programme, use Cottons-90 programme
and select
Additional Water or Extra Rinse auxiliary
functions as well. Run theBefore starting the programme,
put max. 100 g of powder anti-limescale into the main
wash detergent compartment (compartment nr. 2). If the
anti-limescale is in tablet form, put only one tablet into
compartment nr. 2. Dry the inside of the bellow with a clean
piece of cloth after the programme has come to an end.
C
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in every 2 months.
C
Use an anti-limescale suitable for the washing machines.
After every washing make sure that no foreign substance is
left in the drum.
If the holes on the bellow shown in the figure is blocked,
open the holes using a toothpick.
C
Foreign metal substances will cause rust stains in the
drum. Clean the stains on the drum surface by using
cleaning agents for stainless steel. Never use steel wool
or wire wool.
A
warning: Never use sponge or scrub materials. These will
damage the painted and plastic surfaces.
5.3 Cleaning the body and control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with soapy water or non-
corrosive mild gel detergents as necessary, and dry with a
soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the control panel.
5.4 Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water intake valve at the
rear of the machine and also at the end of each water intake
hose where they are connected to the tap. These filters
prevent foreign substances and dirt in the water to enter the
washing machine. Filters should be cleaned as they do get
dirty.
1. Close the taps.
2. Remove the nuts of the water intake hoses to access
the filters on the water intake valves. Clean them with an
appropriate brush. If the filters are too dirty, take them out
by means of pliers and clean them.
3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of the water intake
hoses together with the gaskets and clean thoroughly
under running water.
4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully in their places
and tighten the hose nuts by hand.
5.5 Draining remaining water and
cleaning the pump filter
The filter system in your machine prevents solid items
such as buttons, coins and fabric fibers clogging the pump
impeller during discharge of washing water. Thus, the water
will be discharged without any problem and the service life
of the pump will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the pump filter is clogged.
Filter must be cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 3
months. Water must be drained off first to clean the pump
filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the machine (e.g., when
moving to another house) and in case of freezing of the
water, water may have to be drained completely.
A
warning: Foreign substances left in the pump filter may
damage your machine or may cause noise problem.
