Detergent - Hoover washing machine Instruction Book

Refer to the programme guide (pag.24)
** STANDARD COTTON PROGRAMMES ACCORDING TO (EU) No 1015/2010 and
No 1061/2010
COTTON PROGRAMME with a temperature of 60°C
COTTON PROGRAMME with a temperature of 40°C
These programmes are suitable to clean normally soiled cotton laundry and they are
the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumptions
for washing cotton laundry.
These programmes have been developed to be compliant with the temperature on the
wash label on the garments and the actual water temperature may slightly differ from
the declared temperature of the cycle.

Detergent

Recommendations on the use of detergent at various temperatures.
When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C
or above and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents
that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results.
For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate
for the type of fabric and level of soiling.
Normal powders are suitable for "white" or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while
liquid detergents or "colour protecting" powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with
light levels of soiling.
For washing at temperatures below 40°C we recommend the use of liquid detergents
or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.
For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.
For dosage amounts please follow the instructions on the detergent package label.
Only use detergents that are suitable for use in a washing machine. You will obtain
the best results from your wash with the minimum use of chemical products, and the
best care for your laundry if you take into consideration the level of dirtiness as well
as the type of detergent to choose.
The amount of detergent to use depends on:
Water hardness
●
Depending on the hardness of the water and the type of detergent used, it is
possible to reduce the amount of detergent.
The softer the water supply, the less detergent is required.
The level of dirtiness
●
It is possible to reduce the amount of detergent used depending on how dirty the
laundry is.
Use less detergent for items that are not very dirty.
