the detergent and water temperature.
•Use only suitable detergents for the respective
type of clothing:
−Liquid detergent is often designed for special
applications, e.g. for coloured fabric, wool,
delicate or dark laundry.
−Powdered detergent is suitable for all types
of fabric.
−For better washing results of white and pale
garments, use powdered detergent with
bleach.
−Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the
beginning of the wash cycle.
NOTE
•Do not let the detergent harden. Doing so may
lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or
odour.
•Full load: According to manufacturer’s
recommendation
•Part load: ¾ of the normal amount
•Minimum load: ½ of full load
