NOTE
• Do not pour fabric softener directly on the

Adding Water Softener
• A water softener, such as anti-limescale (e.g.
Calgon) can be used to cut down on the use
of detergent in extremely hard water areas.
Dispense according to the amount specified
on the packaging. First add detergent and then
the water softener.
• Use the quantity of detergent required for soft
water.
CAUTION
• Do not directly put bleach to the laundry. This
may cause partial discoloration and severe
damage to the laundry.
• Do not use chlorine bleach or acidic cleaner
when washing the laundry, as it can cause
damage to clothes such as discoloration and
decoloration of laundry.
