Descaling the washing

d CAUTION d
Descaling agents contain acids
which may attack parts of the
washing machine and discolor
the laundry.
Provided that you use the correct
type of detergent, it is not
necessary to descale the washing
machine.
If white spots, lime or mineral
deposits appear on the interior of
the washing machine drum you can
use a descaling agent to remove
them.
However, if the appliance has to
be descaled, please follow the
instructions provided by the
descaling agent manufacturer.
