THE DETERGENT DRAWER
The detergent drawer on ASKO washers a tomatically dispenses the detergent and
fabric softener at the appropriate times. The drawer is located to the left of the control
panel. Simply p ll the drawer o t and po r the meas red amo nts of detergent and
softener into the proper compartments (as ill strated) and close the drawer.
DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER AMOUNTS
Beca se ASKO washers se less water than conventional top-loading washers, yo need less detergent and fabric softener. We recommend
that yo se a low-s dsing powder detergent only, preferably a high-efficiency (HE) detergent designed specifically for front-loading washers.
(Liq id detergents tend to s ds more, which make them more diffic lt to rinse o t.)
Detergent The amo nt of detergent needed varies, depending on the detergent yo se. For high-efficiency detergent specifically for
front-loading washers, yo sho ld se the amo nts recommended by the man fact rer. For reg lar la ndry detergent, 1 to 3 tablespoons of
detergent is all ou need for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items, however, may need slightly more detergent. Also, the amo nt
of detergent needed can vary d e to differences in water hardness. (Refer to yo r Use and Care Guide for more details.) If yo choose to se
a liq id detergent, start o t with a very small amo nt, s ch as one or two tablespoons.
Fabric Softener We recommend that yo se only 2 tablespoons of fabric softener. If more softening is desired, try sing slightly more
with the next load.

The t mbling wash action, temperat re control options and
extended wash times are s fficient to remove most stains.
