Drum cleaning function in the Leran washing machine

Housewives resort to hand washing only as a last resort, as automatic washing machines have become affordable for almost any budget. Meanwhile, even the most modern auxiliary functions of "home helpers" are gradually becoming commonplace, so their presence no longer surprises users. One such feature is the drum cleaning function in the Leran washing machine. Let's take a closer look at this auxiliary function, as well as many other useful cycles.

We launch the cleaning program

First, let's figure out how to activate this useful program on your Leran appliance. Be sure to empty the washing machine before starting. There should be no laundry inside.

Open the hatch door slightly and check again that there are no foreign objects or dirty clothes inside.
Add hot water and a special appliance cleaner to the detergent dispenser.

It is better not to use cheap analogues, but to use only a detergent specifically designed for cleaning the Leran washing machine.

Now activate the drum cleaning program. It can usually be found on the control panel by a special icon that clearly displays the drum cleaning function.
Press the button to start the cycle and wait until it completes. This process typically lasts 80 minutes, during which the drum is cleaned in water heated to 90 degrees Celsius, but this can vary depending on the model.
After the self-cleaning cycle is complete, be sure to open the machine door to allow the drum to cool and dry. If you don't have time to let the element dry naturally, you can remove any remaining moisture with a dry, soft cloth.

Don't disturb your "home helper" during its working cycle. This primarily concerns adding household chemicals not specified by the manufacturer. So, don't use citric acid or table vinegar, as they not only won't improve the cleaning process but can also damage complex household appliances.

Why activate this additional mode?

Housewives often struggle to understand the purpose of a drum cleaning function, as this feature always appears perfect at first glance. The truth is, mold and various harmful bacteria often thrive in the drum of their washing machine. This is because residues can remain in the drum after washing cycles, causing unpleasant odors and potentially triggering allergic reactions. dirty washing machine drum

The self-cleaning mode can combat unpleasant odors and potential allergens, as well as bacteria and mold, which have no place in a washing machine's drum, which should always be squeaky clean. After the cleaning cycle, the machine will be as good as new, capable of washing any clothes beautifully again. That's why it's so important to know how to activate the drum cleaning function.
