Adding Detergents And Softeners - LG FV1412S3B Owner's Manual

Adding Detergents and
Softeners
Detergent Dosage
• Detergent should be used according to the
instruction of the detergent manufacturer and
selected according to type, colour, soiling of the
fabric and the washing temperature.
• If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent
amount.
• If too much detergent is used, too many suds
can occur and this will result in poor washing
results or cause heavy load to the motor.
• If you wish to use liquid detergent, follow
the guidelines provided by the detergent
manufacturer.
• You can pour liquid detergent directly into the
main detergent drawer if you are starting the
wash cycle immediately.
• Do not use liquid detergent if you are using
Delay End function, or if you have selected
Pre Wash option, as the liquid may harden.
• Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for
water temperature, water hardness, size and
soil level of the load. For best results, avoid
oversudsing.
• Refer to the label of the clothes, before choosing
the detergent and water temperature.
• Use only suitable detergents for the respective
type of clothing:
− Liquid detergent is often designed for special
applications, e.g. for coloured fabric, wool,
delicate or dark laundry.
− Powdered detergent is suitable for all types
of fabric.
− For better washing results of white and pale
garments, use powdered detergent with
bleach.
− Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the
beginning of the wash cycle.
