maintenance - cleaning the washing machine

Always unplug the washing machine before cleaning.

cleaning the drum

Any rust left inside the drum by metal articles must be removed immediately with chlorine-free
detergent.
Never use steel wool.
Don't put laundry in the washing machine during the drum cleaning.

cleaning the exterior of your washing machine

• Clean the outside of your washing machine with a soft cloth and mild detergent such as kitchen
detergent.
• Don't splash water over the washing machine.
• Do not use cream cleansers, thinners or products containing alcohol or kerosene.

cleaning the detergent drawer and siphon plug

1. Remove the detergent drawer by pulling and pressing gently on the rear centre part of the
softener compartment.
2. Wash out old detergent from the drawer with water. (Use a cloth to clean the washing machine.)
Residue detergent soon builds up if you don't clean the drawer regularly, and can develop
mould.
3. Return drawer to original position.
Pull out at the
same time
4. Disassemble the detergent drawer. Remove the siphon
plug and clean the any residual softener thoroughly.
Replace the cleaned siphon plug and check that it is
fitted properly.

cleaning the door seal and window

• Wipe the window and seal after each wash to remove lint and stains. If
lint builds up, it can cause leaks.
• Remove any coins, buttons and other objects from the door seal after
each wash.
