Adding detergent to the washing machine
The amount of detergent used in the washing machine depends on the following criteria:
•
If the laundry is only slightly soiled, do not prewash it. Put a small amount of detergent in compartment II
of the detergent drawer.
•
If the laundry is very dirty, select the pre-rinse programme and put ¼ of the detergent in compartment I of
the detergent drawer and the rest in compartment II.
•
Use detergents designed for automatic washing machines in the washing machine. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions regarding the amount of detergent to be used.
•
More detergent is needed in areas with hard water.
•
The amount of detergent required increases with larger loads of laundry.
•
Place fabric softener in the middle compartment of the detergent drawer.
•
Do not exceed the MAX mark when refilling detergent or fabric softener.
•
Thick fabric softeners or detergents can cause the socket to clog, so dilute them with a little water.
If there is too much detergent:
•
A large amount of foam is produced during washing.
•
The laundry will be badly soaped.
If the amount of detergent is insufficient:
•
The laundry will turn gray.
•
Scale will build up on the drum, heating element and/or laundry.
