The Safest Way to Clean a Washing Machine
The best starting point is usually the cleaning program provided by the manufacturer.
Depending on the brand and model, the program may be called:
Drum Clean
Eco Drum Clean
Tub Clean
Machine Clean
Some manufacturers recommend running a drum-cleaning cycle regularly, depending on the machine and how frequently it is used.
Always check the owner’s manual before adding a cleaning product. Some cleaning programs are specifically designed to run without detergent or other additives.
