Maintenance and cleaning

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel

with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral

detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or

solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse

aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash

programme without dishes using detergent.
