detergent dispenser with the flap
device, add the liquid detergents with
a dosing ball (supplied by the
detergent's manufacturer).
14.5
Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing
machines. In areas where the water
hardness is soft it is not necessary to use
a water softener.
To find out the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water
softener. Follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
14.6 Prepare the drying cycle

15. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
15.1 External cleaning
Clean the appliance with mild soap and
warm water only. Fully dry all the
surfaces.
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol, solvents
or chemical products.
CAUTION!
Do not clean the metal
surfaces with chlorine-based
detergent.
15.2 Descaling
If the water hardness in your
area is high or moderate, we
recommend that you use a
water descaling product for
washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to check for
limescale.
Experience will help you to dry the
laundry better. Take note of the duration
of the cycles done before.
To avoid the static charge at the end of
the drying cycle:
1. Use fabric conditioner in the washing
cycle.
2. Use special fabric conditioner for
tumble dryers.
3. Do not pour any detergent or
softener before a drying cycle.
4. Do not dry rough and smooth textiles
together, to avoid scorching on
smooth garments.
5. Remove all objects from garment
pockets, especially melting objects.
When the drying programme is
completed remove the laundry in a short
time.
The regular detergents already contain
water softening agents, but we
recommend to run a cycle with empty
drum and a descaling product
occasionally.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
15.3 Maintenance wash
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature programmes can cause
detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth 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 regularly (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.

unwanted deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due
to rusting foreign body in the washing or
tap water containing iron.
Clean the drum with special products for
stainless steel.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
Do not clean the drum with
