chapters.
External cleaning
Clean the appliance with soap and warm

solvents or chemical products.
Descaling
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you use
a water descaling product for washing
machines.

limescale and rust particles.
To remove rust particles use only special
products for washing machines. Do this
separately from the laundry wash.

that you find on the packaging
of the product.

With the low temperature programmes it is
possible that some detergent stays in the
your domestic system. Refer to "Water

a water softener for washing machines. In
areas where the water hardness is soft it
is not necessary to use a water softener.
To know the water hardness in your area,
contact your local water authority.
