recommend to run a cycle with empty
drum and a descaling product
occasionally.

The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature and short programmes can
cause detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth and biofilm formation
inside the drum and the tub. This could
generate bad odours and mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and
hygienize the inner part of the appliance,
run a maintenance wash at least once a
month:
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run a cotton programme with the
highest temperature with a small
quantity of powder detergent or, if
available, run the Machine Clean
programme.

This appliance is designed with a self
cleaning draining system, allowing light
fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be

examine the seal. Coins, buttons, other
small items can be recovered at the end
of the cycle.
Clean it when needed, using ammonia
cream cleanser agent without scratching
the seal surface.
Always obey the instructions
that you find on the
packaging of the product.
