Using detergent
Detergent
Follow the detergent package directions. Using too little detergent is a common cause of laundry problems.
Use more detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils. When warm water is used
for washing, the normal soap dosage can be used to give the best results.
Choosing the right Detergent
We recommend the use of domestic detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or
granulated soap powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens
remember to use detergent suitable for washing woolens.
How much Detergent
The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes
(Jeans and work
clothes may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).
For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent
manufacturer.
Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine
about half- way through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of
the water. Lots of foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No
foam means not enough detergent has been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes
or the washing machine. If excess detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient.
Also, it could cause environmental pollution, And long term scrud build up.
Adding the Detergent
Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser
drawer.
We recommend the use of powdered detergent in the dispenser when
using a delay wash function.
We recommend to dissolve measured detergent in 1 liter warm water
before addition to the machine.
Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water
hardness, size and soil level of the load.
Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversuding and detergent residue being
left on the clothes.
Using Liquid Bleach
Check clothing care label for special instructions and separate the laundry to be
bleached Dilute liquid chlorine bleach
Measure the recommended amount of liquid bleach carefully following instructions
on the bottle.
Before starting the washer, pour measured of bleach directly into bleach dispenser.
Avoid splashing or overfilling. Powdered bleach should be mixed with water before
pouring.
Attention
■ Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket. This may cause change
of color or damage the laundry.
■ Do not pour powdered bleach dispenser.
