Detergents and laundry

 

Detergent dispenser

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of

 

 

 

detergent: adding too much detergent won’t necessarily

 

make for a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause

 

build up on the interior of your appliance and even pollute

 

the environment.

Preparing your laundry

• Divide your laundry according to:

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.

- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.

• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.

• Do not exceed the weight limits stated below,

which refer to the weight when dry:

Open up the detergent dispenser and pour in the detergent and fabric softener, as follows.

Sturdy fabrics: max 6 kg

Synthetic fabrics: max 2.5 kg

Delicate fabrics: max 2 kg

Wool: max 1,5 kg

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g

1 pillow case 150-200 g

1 tablecloth 400-500 g

compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash (powder) Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that extra compartment 4 has been removed.

compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle (powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately prior to the wash cycle start.

compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.) The fabric softener should not overflow from the grid. extra compartment 4: Bleach

!Do not use hand wash detergent because it may form too much foam.

Bleach cycle

!Traditional bleach should be used on sturdy white fabrics, and delicate bleach for coloured fabrics, synthe- tics and for wool.

1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g

1 towel 150-250 g

Special items

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without exceeding half the appliance load. Use programme 7 which exclu- des the spin cycle automatically.

Quilted coats and windbreakers: if they are padded with goose or duck down, they can be machine-washed. Turn the garments inside out and load a maximum of 2-3 kg, repeating the rinse cycle once or twice and using the delicate spin cycle.

Wool: for best results, use a specific detergent, taking care not to exceed a load of 1,5 kg.

MAX

MAX

Place extra compartment 4, provided, into compart- ment 1.

When pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the “max” level in- dicated on the central pivot (see figure).

To run the bleach cycle alone, pour the bleach into extra compartment 4, set the Rinse programme and enable the Stain removal option (see page 11). To bleach during a wash cycle, pour in the detergent and fabric softener, set the desired programme and enable the Stain removal option (see page 11).

The use of extra compartment 4 excludes the possibility of using the pre-wash cycle.
