Then turn the machine 90° when empty.

Baking soda is also a natural descaler. You can use it to remove limescale from your washing machine and also to deodorize your appliance. To do this, add 2 tablespoons of baking soda to the drum and pour 100 ml of white vinegar into the detergent drawer. Then carry out a 60° program.

When cleaning the drum, do not forget about the seals. In a container, mix the baking soda with a little water to form a paste and scrub the grout with an old toothbrush to remove detergent residue, mold, dirt and scale deposits. Then clean the joint with a cloth soaked in white vinegar.
