Detergent Drawer
Detergent drawer of your washing machine
consists of four different compartments for
powder main wash detergent, liquid main
wash detergent, liquid softener and powder
pre-wash detergent. Each of these laundry
additives are dispensed automatically in the
relevant time during the washing Programme.
Do not place the laundry additives directly into
the drum. Always use the detergent drawer.
Do not close the drawer too fast after putting the
laundry additives. This may cause the additives
be dispensed early, creating unsatisfactory
washing results and fabric damage.
C
INFORMATION
• Do not open the drawer during
washing Programme.
