Page 24: Detergent And Fabric Softener
DETERGENT aND faBRIC SOfTENER Detergent type Your washer requires low sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems. Low sudsing detergent comes in powder, liquid or pod form and is labelled ‘Front Loading’, ‘Low Suds’, ‘High Efficiency’ or ‘HE’. Using top loading detergent in your front loader washer may lead to excessive suds formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the machine waits for the suds to dissolve. - Page 25 DETERGENT aND faBRIC SOfTENER How much detergent? The correct detergent dosage varies depending on the amount of soil in your load, the size of the load and the water quality, so getting the correct dose takes some trial and error. Use the instructions stated on the detergent package as a guide, then alter the dosage according to the results.
