Maintenance wash
CLEANING &
MAINTENANCE
Using too little detergent can cause a build up of grease, dirt
and hard water salts, which, over time may damage your
machine, your clothes and could cause the machine to smell.
We recommend you carry out a maintenance wash two or
three times a year to keep the machine and the outlet pipes
clean and free from a build up of these deposits.
Simply run programme ‘C’ without laundry, using the usual
amount of biological detergent for normal soiling.
NOTE: This will take approximately 2 hours 30 minutes to
complete.
