FAQs

How do I clean the detergent drawer?

Remove the drawer and rinse it under warm water. Use a soft brush to remove any detergent buildup. Allow it to dry completely before reinserting it.

Where is the drain filter located?

The drain filter is usually located at the bottom front of the machine, behind a small access panel.

How often should I clean the drain filter?

Clean the drain filter every 1-2 months, or more frequently if you notice a decrease in performance or if error codes appear.

What kind of detergent should I use?

Use high-efficiency (HE) detergent designed for front-load washing machines. Avoid using too much detergent, as this can lead to poor performance and residue buildup.

Yes, the Ultima S-Line has a Stop&Add function, allowing you to add forgotten items during the initial minutes of the wash cycle.
