values on the detergent packaging in or-
der to eliminate excessive foam and poor
rinsing problems, to save money and pro-
tect the environment.
• Use less amounts of detergent for fewer
or less soiled laundry.
Using SoftenersPut the softener in the softener compart-
ment of the detergent drawer.
• Do not exceed the (>max<) level sign in
the softener compartment.
• If the softener is not fluid, dilute with wa-
ter before placing in the softener com-
partment.
WARNINGDo not use liquid detergents or
other materials with cleaning prop-
erties unless they are intended for
use in washing machines for
softening the laundry.
Using Liquid DetergentsIf the Product Has a Liquid DetergentApparatus• Press and rotate the apparatus at where
it is shown when you want to use liquid
detergents. The part falling below will
serve as a barrier for liquid detergent.
• Clean with water at its place or by remov-
ing from its place when it is necessary.
Do not forget to place the apparatus in
the main washing compartment (com-
partment no. “2”) after cleaning.
• The apparatus should be up if you will
use a powder detergent. The fan that you
would see in this position will mix the
powder detergent and help it to dissolve.

Use of Gel and Tablet Detergents• If the detergent is fluid and there is no li-
quid detergent compartment in your
product, place the gel detergent in the
main washing detergent compartment in
first water intake. If your product has a li-
quid detergent compartment, fill the com-
partment with detergent before starting
the programme.
• If the gel detergent is not fluid or is in a
capsule liquid tablet, place directly inside
the drum before washing.
• Put the tablet detergent in the main
washing compartment (compartment no.
“2”) or directly inside the drum before
washing.
Using Starch• Put in the liquid starch, powder starch or
fabric dye in the softener compartment.
• Do not use softener and starch in the
same washing programme simultan-
eously.
• Wipe the inside of the product with a
damp and clean cloth after using starch. Using Anti-Limescale• When necessary, only use anti-limescale
produced for washing machines.
Using Bleach and Decolourants• Select a programme with pre-washing
and add bleach at the start of pre-wash-
ing. Do not put detergent in the pre-wash
compartment. As an alternative applica-
tion, select a programme with additional
rinsing and add the bleach while the
product is receiving water to the deter-
gent compartment in the first rinsing
step.
• Do not mix and use bleach and detergent
together.
• As bleach may cause skin irritation use
only small amounts (1/2 tea cups - ap-
proximately 50 ml and rinse the laundry
well.
• Do not pour bleach directly onto the laun-
dry.
• Do not use bleach for coloured clothes.
• Select a programme with low temperat-
ure washing while using oxygen-based
decolourants.
• Oxygen-based decolourants can be used
together with detergents. However, if it
does not have the same viscosity as the
detergent, first place the detergent in
compartment no. “2” in the detergent
drawer and wait for the product to rinse
away the detergent during water intake.
Add the decolourant to the same com-
partment while the machine continues
taking in water.
