Operating The Washer - Whirlpool WDC1070 User Manual

Important Notice
When there's too much foam, the FOD signal will light up, it is not because the
machine is faulty. Simply reduce the amount of detergent used in the next
wash. Use the measuring cup to measure the amount, and follow the
recommendation on the detergent product label.
Fabric softener

Add fabric softener to the centre compartment in the detergent drawer. The use of
softener is optional.

Do not exceed the maximum amount indicated. The softener will over-spill to other
compartments and cause contamination if the maximum is exceeded.

Some brands of softener are more sticky and likely to leave residue inside the
compartment. Pour some clean water into the compartment to dilute and cleanse it
before the next use.
Pre-Wash
Only when selecting the ' Pre-wash ' programme would it be necessary to add detergent or essence
to the right-hand compartment.
Important Notice
Do not add detergent or essence to the right-hand compartment if 'Pre-wash' is
not selected.
When washing essence is used, it will flow through from the detergent drawer into the
drum before the washing programme begins. This is normal.
Important Notice

Do not dump softener into the Pre-wash or Detergent compartments. Use the
appropriate compartment for each type of detergent. Mixing may cause
chemical reactions between detergent and essence, potentially contaminating
the laundry and damage the washer.

If the wrong detergent is added by mistake, simply remove the separator
plate and follow the steps on page 24 to clean the drawer.
