Operating Instructions

If the washing results are not satisfactory

If the washing turns greyish and limescale deposits are present in the drum

•Insufficient detergent has been added.

•Incorrect detergent was used.

•Stains were not pre-treated.

•Programme or temperature was not set correctly.

•If using modular detergents, the individual components were not used in the correct ratio.

If there are still grey stains on the washing

•Soiled garments with ointments, grease or oils were washed with in- sufficient detergent.

•The temperature selected for the wash was too low.

•A frequent cause is that fabric softener - particularly a concentrated one - has come into contact with the washing. Wash out these types of stains as soon as possible and use the fabric softener carefully.

If after the last rinse foam is still visible

•Modern detergents can still cause foam in the final rinse cycle. How- ever, the washing is still sufficiently rinsed.

If there are white residues on the washing

•These are insoluble contents of modern detergents. They are not the result of an insufficient rinse. Shake out the washing or brush it off. Turn the washing inside out before washing it. Review your choice of detergent and if necessary use liquid detergent.
