The washing drum
• If you live in a hard water area, lime scale can continuously builds up in places where
it cannot be seen
and it is not easily removed from the drum.
Over time the build-up of scale clogs appliances, and if it is not kept in check, these
will eventually
have to be replaced.
• Although the washing drum is made of Stainless steel, specks of rust can be caused
by small metal articles (paper clips, safety pins, etc.) which have been left in the drum.
• The washing drum should be cleaned from time to time.
• If you use descaling agents, dyes, or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for
washing machine use.
• Descaler could contain components that can damage part of your washing machine.
• Remove the spots with a stainless steel cleaning agent.
• Never use steel wool.
Cleaning the Dispenser
• The dispenser may need to be cleaned periodically due to laundry additive build-up.
• Run warm water and a soft brush or cloth over the drawer, liquid detergent box and
inserts to remove any excess laundry additives.
• Clean the drawer opening using water and a small brush.
• Follow the illustrations in reverse order to replace the parts to their proper location.
NOTE: Do not use any cleaning substance on the drawer opening other than water because
it will drain into the tub.
If this should happen, set the washer for a rinse and spin cycle to remove any
cleaning substance from the washer before doing a load of laundry.
