Note:
•
Agglomerating or ropy detergent or additive can be diluted in some water
before pouring it into the detergent dispenser, to avoid its inlet to get blocked
and thus cause a water overflow.
• Please choose the suitable type of detergent to get a maximum of washing
performance and a minimum of water and energy consumption
• To achieve the best cleaning result a proper detergent dosing is important.
• Use a reduced detergent amount if the drum is not filled completely.
•
Always adjust the amount of detergent to the water hardness, if your tap
water is soft, use less detergent.
•
Dose according to how dirty your laundry is, less dirty clothes require less
detergent.
•
Highly concentrated (compact detergent) requires particularly accurate dosing.
