your detergent supplier for advice.

Problem solving guide
– Very soft water
^ In areas with very soft water (hardness
level 1) dispense less detergent as
specified by the detergent manufacturer.
– Soiling level of the laundry
^ For lightly soiled laundry dispense less
detergent in accordance with the
detergent manufacturer's instructions.
– Residues e.g. detergent on the laundry
^ Run a pre-wash without detergent and
without selecting a temperature.
Laundry which has been soaked before
washing must be thoroughly rinsed before
running a wash programme.
– Small loads
^ Reduce the amount of detergent
dispensed according to the size of the
load.
– Drum speed too high during the wash
(Profitronic controls)
^ Reduce the drum speed and the wash
rhythm.
– Gas-heated washer-extractors
On gas heated machines the suds solution
is pumped around the heater elements. This
additional movement of the suds can
produce extra foam.
^ Follow the dispensing instructions given
above.
^ Use a low lather detergent.
^ On Profitronic controlled machines and in
special circumstances it is possible to
reduce the drum speed and the wash
rhythm during the heating-up phase.
