Laundry
Detergents and
Additives
Dispensing the correct
amount of detergent
d WARNING
TO AVOID RISK OF POISONING!
Keep detergents and additives out
of the reach of children.
Measure out the detergent (powder or
liquid) according to:
- The water hardness. This
information can be obtained from
your local water authority. Soft
water requires less detergent.
- The amount of laundry.
- The degree of soiling. Information
on soiling can be found on Page
14.
- The specifications of the detergent
manufacturer. Measuring the
correct amount of detergent
reduces the strain on the
environment and ensures optimum
washing results.
Too little detergent:
The laundry is not cleaned properly and
will eventually become gray and stiff.
Grayish brown spots (fat globules) may
appear on the laundry. The heater may
calcify.
Too much detergent:
Not environmentally friendly, excessive
suds reduce wash agitation producing
poor washing and rinsing results or
may prevent proper spinning.
Filling laundry detergent
and/or additives
Open the flap of the detergent
q
dispenser.

Dispenser I:
Dispenser for detergent, stain remover.
i We recommend HE detergents
because they are particularly
designed to deliver optimum
performance from your
front-loading washer. Not
using HE detergent could cause
problems such as oversudsing,
extended cycle periods, or a
decrease in wash performance.
Dispenser II:
Cleaning additives, e.g. fabric softener,
fabric conditioner. Do not fill over edge
of max line!
i Do not use fabric softener with
outdoor fabrics (ie: rubberized or
waterproof materials).
Dispenser III:
Dispenser for liquid bleach (chlorine
bleach, color safe bleach).
Do not overfill!
i Concentrated or thick fabric
softener, conditioner and
powder-bleach must be diluted
with a little water before being
poured into the dispenser
(prevents overflow due to
obstruction).
i
Bleach may cause discoloration of
the washer's colored surface.
Therefore, it is important to keep
the bleach away from the colored
surface of your washer. If any
bleach spills on the surface, use a
moist paper towel to thoroughly
clean it immediately.
i Close the flap of the detergent
dispenser. Please ensure the
lid is entirely closed.
