Before Using
Detergent
Detergent
Use a low foam detergent.
When using a detergent made for
temperatures below 20 °C (as low as
15 °C), we recommend the “20 °C
Wash” programme.
zTo prevent powdered detergent
from remaining in detergent drawer:
• Dry inside the detergent drawer
with a cloth.
• Break up lumps in powdered
detergent.
If powder still remains in drawer,
put it directly in drum instead.
z If you forget to add detergent before
starting a wash:
Select using “Mode” (P. 26)
to drain the water, then start again.
NOTE
zDo not put detergent in the
detergent drawer, if the
instructions on the package
advise that it should be put
directly in the drum.
The detergent may not ow freely,
and some may remain in the
drawer, causing water to overow
from the drawer.
 Prewashing
zYou need separate detergent for
prewash and main wash.
zUse powdered detergent for main
wash. Liquid detergent washes
away in prewash.
Water softening agent
If you live in a hard water area
(1.3 mmol/L hardness or more), we
recommend using a water softening
agent. This reduces the detergent
required, and prevents limescale,
which damages the appliance.
NOTE
zFor information on water hardness,
contact a specialist near you.
Fabric softener
Prevents laundry static.
z If any softener
remains in
detergent
drawer after
operation,
dilute the
softener with
water before pouring into the drawer.
(do not exceed the max amount)
Softener left in drawer: You can wipe
it with a wet cloth.
Laundry starch
zIf it is hard to pour starch into the
detergent drawer
Dilute the starch with water before
pouring into the drawer. (do not
exceed the max amount)
zAfter using laundry starch
1 Clean detergent drawer.
(P. 30)
2 Run the “Rapid 15” programme
(P. 19) without detergent to
remove excess starch in drum.
Fabric

Water
zAdd detergent, etc. before pressing “Start/Pause”.
