(see below).
Note: if you fill beyond the MAX mark, the fabric softener will be dispensed into the
bowl prematurely and contribute to scrud.
Scrud
Scrud is the name of the waxy build-up that can occur within any washing machine
(including washer dryers) when fabric softener comes in contact with detergent. This
build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine. If scrud is allowed to build
up in the machine it can result in stains on clothes and an unpleasant smell in your
washer dryer.
If you wash a particularly dirty load, we recommend putting your washer dryer through
a 'Rinse' cycle once the cycle has finished and the load has been removed, to clean
out any remnants from that cycle.
