Miele W 1966 WASHING MACHINE Operating Instructions Manual page 14

Use only high-efficiency, low
sudsing laundry detergent
formulated for front loading washing
machines.
For wool and wool blend fabrics, use a
detergent formulated for wools.
Follow instructions on the detergent
packaging for the correct use and
amount of detergent. You may need to
adjust the amount of detergent if the
load is smaller or more or less soiled
than normal.
Add detergent to compartment j at
the beginning of each wash program.
Only add detergent (
recommended amount) to compartment
i if the "Heavy soil" option was
selected.
If you select the "Heavy soil" option and
you are using liquid detergent, insert
the liquid detergent insert into
compartment j. This will prevent the
detergent for the main wash being used
in the first wash of the "Heavy soil"
option.
