Electrolux Appliance Maintenance Tips
Electrolux appliances last longer with the right care. Follow these maintenance tips from our Electrolux-trained technicians to keep your washing machine, dishwasher and fridge performing for years.
Run an Electrolux Drum Clean Programme Monthly
Electrolux washers have a 'Drum Clean' or 'Hygiene' cycle. Run it monthly with the drum empty to clear soap residue, biofilm and limescale.
Clean the Electrolux Dishwasher Filter Weekly
Electrolux dishwashers have a removable cylindrical filter at the base. Take it out, rinse under warm water, scrub with an old toothbrush. Skipping this clogs the wash pump and triggers errors.
Refill Electrolux AutoDose Tanks Promptly
AutoDose washers require detergent tanks topped up before fully empty. Running them dry can damage the dispensing pump.
Vacuum Electrolux Fridge Coils Every 6 Months
Dust on the coils forces the Electrolux compressor to work harder. Twice-yearly vacuuming lowers energy use and extends compressor life.
Use Salt and Rinse Aid in Electrolux Dishwashers
Electrolux dishwashers perform best when salt and rinse-aid are kept topped up. Hard Gauteng water destroys heating elements without proper salt levels.
Don't Overload Electrolux Washing Machines
Electrolux drums have generous capacity but the rated load applies. Overloading wears the inverter motor and drum bearings. Spread heavy laundry across two cycles.
