20 PREPARATION
Using Defergenf/Fabric Soffener
Recommended Det'ergent
Make sure to use HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
for front-loading washing machines. HE detergents
dissolve more efficiently and produce fewer suds to
ensure efficient washing and rinsing. Use the correct
amount of detergent as indicated on the detergent
packaging.
Specially designed to use only
HE (High-Efficiency) detergent
_-@ NOTE
• Only use HE detergents, because using a regular
detergent may produce excessive suds.
• HE detergents produce fewer suds, dissolve
more efficiently to improve washing and rinsing
performance, and help to keep the interior of your
washer clean.
• Use less detergent for soft water.
• Wipe up any spills immediately, as liquids could
damage the finish and the control panel of the
washing machine.
• Using too much detergent can cause a build-up
in the tub resulting in unsatisfactory performance
and machine malfunction.
o If you use a detergent that does not dissolve easily
or a detergent with high viscosity, it will leave a
residue on the tub, which may not rinse properly.
