  • Page 29: Detergent And Fabric Softener

    DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER Detergent type Your washer dryer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems. Low sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled ‘Top Loader/Front Loader’, ‘Low Suds’, ‘High Efficiency’ or ‘HE’. Using any other detergent type that is not recommended for front loaders, may lead to excessive suds formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for the suds to dissolve.
  • Page 30 DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER Pods Detergent pods are a ‘no mess’ alternative to powdered or liquid detergent. They must be placed at the back of the drum prior to loading your clothes. This will ensure they are activated quickly in the wash. Do not place pods in the detergent dispenser drawer or on top of your clothes.

  • Page 34: Wash And Dry Cycle Options

    WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS All wash and dry cycles default to the recommended options for that cycle based on the average load expected to be washed. You can vary the options (eg ‘Wash Temp’, ‘Spin Speed’) to create your desired cycle. Note: some options are not available on some cycles, for clothes care reasons, or because the option is not appropriate for the cycle.
  • Page 35 WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS Options Pre Wash For extra dirty loads you can perform a ‘Pre Wash’. Your washer dryer will start the wash with a short wash in cool water to remove excess soil. After this the machine will drain and then fill with the selected temperature for the main wash.
  • Page 36 WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS Dryness Level Your washer dryer takes the guess work out of choosing drying times by sensing the dryness of the load. When your washer dryer senses that the clothes have dried to the dryness level you have selected, the washer dryer will automatically enter the cool down phase then finish the cycle.
  • Page 37 WASH AND DRY CYCLE OPTIONS Keylock This option enables you to deactivate the buttons on the display panel, except for the ‘POWER’ and ‘Keylock’ buttons.
