11.4 Ecological hints

• Set a programme without the

prewash phase to wash laundry with

normal soil.

• Always start a washing programme

with the maximum load of laundry

allowed.

• If you pre-treat the stains or use a

stain remover, set a programme with

a low temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of

detergent, check the water hardness

of your domestic system. Refer to

"Water hardness".

11.5 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.

12. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

12.1 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.

12.2 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.

Regular detergents already contain water

softening agents, but we recommend to

run a cycle with an empty drum and a

descaling product occasionally.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

12.3 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

clean the inner part of the appliance, run

a maintenance wash regularly (at least

once a month).

Refer to Cleaning the drum

chapter.

12.4 Door seal with double lip

trap

This appliance is designed with a self

cleaning draining system, allowing light

fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be

drained out with the water, in such a way

that there is no need by the customer to

access this area for regular maintenance

and cleaning.

Regularly examine the seal and remove

all objects from the inner part. Coins,
