Solution
Important: Before any maintenance other than running the programme Machine Clean, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the main socket.
- Examine the filters and drain
Check for any large residue/deposit and remove them.
- Clean the appliance, including the rubber gasket of the door, with a soft damp cloth.
