According to regulation 1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60 °C cotton programme»
and the «Standard 40 °C cotton programme». They are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined
energy and water consumptions for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.
CARE AND CLEANING
Important! You must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity supply, before
you can carry out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
DESCALING
The water we use normally contains lime. It
is a good idea to periodically use a water
softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder manu-
facturer's instructions. This will help to pre-
vent the formation of lime deposits.
MAINTENANCE WASH
With the use of low temperature washes it
is possible to get a build up of residues in-
side the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash
be performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
• The drum should be empty of laundry.
• Select the hottest cotton wash pro-
gramme.
• Use a normal measure of detergent,
must be a powder with biological proper-
ties.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance
with soap and water only, and then dry
thoroughly.
CLEANING THE DISPENSER DRAWER
The washing powder and additive dispens-
er drawer should be cleaned regularly.
1. If necessary, the whole detergent draw-
er can be taken out of the machine for
cleaning. You need to pull it firmly out-
wards, so that it comes free of retaining
stop.
2. To remove the siphon at the inside
edge of the drawer for cleaning, you
need to press it inwards and pull it up-
wards at the same time. Flush it out un-
der a tap, to remove any traces of ac-
cumulated powder. When you put it
back, press it downwards until you
hear a distinct click.
CLEANING THE DRAWER RECESS
Having removed the drawer, use a small
brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all
washing powder residue is removed from
the upper and lower part of the recess.
