Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents
Add detergent and softener before starting the washing programme.
Never leave the detergent drawer open while the washing programme is running!
When using a programme without prewash, do not put any detergent into the prewash compartment
(compartment 1).
In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment 1).
Do not select a programme with prewash if using a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the detergent bag
or the dispensing ball directly among the laundry in the appliance.
If using liquid detergent, please put the liquid detergent into the main wash compartment
(compartment 2).
Choosing the detergent type
The type of detergent to be used depends on the type and the colour of the fabric.
Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry.
Wash the delicate clothes only with special detergents (liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for
delicate clothes.
When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, it is recommended to use liquid detergent.
Wash wools with special detergent made specifically for wools.
Warning: Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines.
Warning: Do not use soap powder.
Adjusting detergent amount
The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water
hardness.
Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities recommended on the detergent package to avoid
problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally, environmental protection.
Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes.
Using softeners
Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent drawer.
Do not exceed the maximum level marking in the softener compartment.
If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting it in the detergent drawer.
Using liquid detergents
Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a programme with prewash.
Liquid detergent stains the clothes when used with time delay function. If use the time delay function, do
not use liquid detergent.
Using bleaches
Select a programme with prewash and add the bleaching agent at the beginning of the prewash. Do not put
detergent in the prewash compartment. As an alternative application, select a programme with extra rinse
and add the bleaching agent while the appliance is taking water from the detergent compartment during first
rinsing step.
Do not use bleaching agent and detergent by mixing them.
Use just a little amount (approximate 50 ml) of bleaching agent and rinse the clothes very well as it causes
skin irritation. Do not pour the bleaching agent onto the clothes and do not use it for coloured clothes.
When using oxygen based bleaches, select a programme that washes at a lower temperature.
