The drum is made of stainless steel. Any rusty items left In the
laundry (see “Preliminary operations for washing”) could leave rust
stains on the surface of the drum. These stains can be removed
with a suitable stainless steel cleaner, available from the Service
Centre.
Remove any deposits or foreign objects from Jhe rubber seal on
the porthole door.
Never close the porthole door immediately after washing; leave it
open to allow the drum to dry and ensure that the machine Is
properly aired.
If the correct amount of detergent is used, descaling should not
be necessary. If, however, it does become necessary, use only
branded, non-corrosive descalers suitable for washing machines.
These are available from the Service Centre.
If necessary, clean the control panel with warm water only.
