Checking the Clothes before
Loading
• Combine large and small items in a load. Load
large items first. Large items should not be more
than half of total load.
• Do not wash single small items. Add 1-2 similar
items to the load to prevent an out-of-balance
load.
• Make sure to empty all pockets. Items such as
nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys
can damage both your appliance and clothes.
• Wash delicates (stockings, underwired bras) in
a wash net.
• Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure
that these items do not snag other clothes.
• Pre-treat dirt and stains by saturating the
dirt and stains with dissolved detergent and
brushing them in order to remove dirt.
• Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and
remove any small items.
CAUTION
• Check if the laundry gets stuck between the
door and the seal, otherwise the laundry may
get damaged while washing.
16
• Remove items from the flexible gasket to prevent
clothing and door seal damage.
Adding Detergents and
Softeners
Detergent Dosage
• Detergent should be used according to the
instruction of the detergent manufacturer and
selected according to type, colour, soiling of the
fabric and the washing temperature.
• Reduce the amount of detergent if too many
suds are formed.
• Too much detergent results in excessive suds
which cause poor washing.
• When you use liquid detergent, follow
the guidelines provided by the detergent
manufacturer.
• You can pour liquid detergent directly into the
main detergent drawer if you are starting the
wash cycle immediately.
• Do not use liquid detergent if you are using
Delay End function, or if you have selected
Pre Wash option, as the liquid may harden.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for
water temperature, water hardness, size and
soil level of the laundry. For best results, avoid
oversudsing.
• Refer to the label of the clothes, before choosing
the detergent and water temperature.
• Use only suitable detergents for the respective
type of clothing:
− Liquid detergent is often designed for special
applications, e.g. for coloured fabric, wool,
delicate or dark laundry.
− Powdered detergent is suitable for all types
of fabric.
− For better washing results of white and pale
clothes, use powdered detergent with bleach.
− Detergent is dispensed from the dispenser at
the beginning of the wash cycle.
