How to wash correctly

Add detergent

When the door is closed, the load size indicator will be replaced with the detergent percentage display.

Detergent

100%

The percentage shown relates to the amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer on the packaging.

40% = Add slightly less than half the amount recommended

50% = Add half the amount recommended

60% = Add slightly more than half the amount recommended

75% = Add three quarters of the amount recommended

100% = Add the full amount of detergent recommended

You also need to take the level of soiling and water hardness into account.

It is important to dispense the correct amount, because

too little detergent results in:

–Laundry not getting properly clean and with time it may become grey and hard to the touch.

–Greasy particles clinging to laundry.

–Limescale deposits on the heater elements.

too much detergent results in:

–Excessive foam which causes a low level of agitation and poor wash, rinse and spin results.

–High water consumption (an additional rinse cycle will automatically switch in).

–A burden to the environment.
