Descaling
If your water supply is harder than 7¡ dH, you should
descale your washing machine at least once every
three months. Use approx. 150 ml of citric acid
instead of detergent and run a wash programme at
the highest temperature with no wash load in the
machine. Limescale deposits on components such
as the machines heating element will reduce their
service life. (Contact your water company to find
