Blomberg WAF 1340 A Mode D'emploi page 23

A
Rust stains may occur due to foreign
objects made of metal. In such cases:
Clean the drum with a stainless steel
cleaning agent. Never use steel wool
or scrub sponges.
Housing and control panel
When necessary:
• Clean cabinet with soap suds or a mild
cleaner; wipe dry with a soft cloth.
• Use only a soft, damp cloth to clean
the control panel.
A
Never use a scrub sponge or a scour-
ing agent. These will damage the
enamel and plastic parts.
Foreign matter trap
• Clean the foreign matter trap at least
once after every 40 wash cycles!
• Clean foreign object trap, if foreign
objects (coins, buttons, baby socks,
etc.) are blocking the suds pump.
• Drain left-over water before cleaning
(see below).
Draining remaining water
Drain off the water completely...
• before cleaning the foreign matter
trap;
• before transporting the machine (e.g.
when shifting house);
• when there is a power failure ("emer-
gency draining");
• when there is a danger of frost.
A
At room temperatures below 0 °C the
remaining water in the appliance
could freeze, damaging it.
1. Switch appliance off, unplug the pow-
er cable, close the water tap.
A
Allow hot suds to cool off sufficiently.
This poses a risk of scalding.
2. Open the service door by pushing on
the button. Take out the drain pipe
and hold it over a bowl. Pull the seal
off the drain hose and allow the water
to drain out one bowl at a time.
A
There may be more than 20 litres of
water left in the machine when the
drum is bull (e.g. after a power fail-
ure)!
3. Turn the foreign object trap 1/2 turn
to loosen it (anti-clockwise) and soak
up the remaining water with a cloth.
Once no more water is coming out,
turn the foreign object trap until it is
completely free and remove it.
