Using Bleach
AVAILABLE BLEACH TYPE
• Use oxygenated bleach.
• Do not use liquid bleach.
• For more details refer to the products instruction for use.
DEPOSITING BLEACH
• Separate the laundry to be bleached.
• Measure powdered bleach carefully, following instructions on the box.
• Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of bleach following instructions on the box.
Attention
■ Never pour undiluted liquid bleach directly onto clothes or into the wash basket.
This may affect colors or damage clothing.
■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.
Mixing can produce a toxic gas which may cause death.
■ Do not pour liquid bleach into bleach dispenser.
Using Fabric Softener
If desired, pour the recommended amount of liquid
fabric softener into the right-hand compartment.
Use only liquid fabric softener.
Dilute with water to the maximum fill line.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric
softener, which could stain clothes.
NOTE : Do not pour fabric softener directly on the
wash load. It may stain the clothes.
Attention
■ Do not mix with Detergent or bleach.
■ Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may stain them.
■ Do not stop the washer during the first spin for timely dispensing.
■ Option washing is not designed to be used with fabric softener dispenser.
Scrud(Waxy Build up)
Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can occur within any washer when the fabric softener comes into
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 your clothes or an unpleasant smell in
your washer.
If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend
• Using fabric softener sparingly.
• When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.
• Clean dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.
• Clean your machine regularly. (refer to page 21 or 32)
• Cold water washing increases the chance of this build-up occurring. We recommend a regular WARM or HOT wash
e.g. every 5th wash should be at least a warm one.
• Fabric softener of thinner consistency is less likely to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute to a build-up.
Check fabric care labels for special instructions.
