U
se of Water, Detergent, Bleach and Softener
Using Fabric Softener
• Dilute fabric softener with water.
Undiluted fabric softener may result in spots that look like
oil stains.
• Measure and add the recommended amount of fabric
softener into the compartment marked with this symbol
(
). Follow manufacturer's direction.
• Fabric softener is automatically dispensed in the final
rinse with indication beep.
• If you want extra rinse, you must add fabric softener
manually when indication beep rings in the final rinse.
This maximize the fabric softener function.
• Do not overfill. The dispenser hold max 35mL.
Never add more than 35mL.
Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener
which could result in stained clothes. A cup with a pouring spout will help you avoid spilling.
• The effect of adding fabric softener may vary according to its viscosity. The stickier fabric softener
makes it effect the lower. For a sticky fabric softener it is recommended that it be diluted with water,
then be manually put during the time when the washer beeps several times before the final rinse.
This function informing correct time to dispense manually is optionally applied to some models.
Please keep it in mind that fabric
poured directly on 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 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 built-up.
softener has to be diluted with water before dispensed and never
