Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the
choice of detergent and use of the correct
quantities to avoid waste and protect the en-
vironment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities, can
upset the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine de-
tergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(60°C max) and woollens
• liquid detergents, preferably for low tem-
perature wash programmes (60°C max)

The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer's recom-
mendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the de-
tergent dispenser drawer .
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called "de-
grees" of hardness. Information on hard-
ness of the water in your area can be ob-
tained from the relevant water supply com-
pany, or from your local authority.
A water softener must be added when
water has a medium-high degree of
hardness (from degree of hardness II).
Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
The quantity of detergent can then al-
ways be adjusted to degree of hard-
ness I (= soft).
