Fabric conditioners and liquid starch
Fabric conditioners make garments soft to handle and help prevent static cling when tumble drying.
Starch stiffens and gives body to items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen.
^Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging.
Automatic dispensing of fabric conditioner or liquid starch to laundry at the end of a programme
^Add the fabric conditioner or liquid starch to compartment §. Do not exceed the maximum level mark.
The conditioner or liquid starch is automatically dispensed in the last rinse. At the end of the programme a small amount of water remains in the fabric conditioner compartment §.
If starching frequently, the dispenser compartment and especially the siphon tube and conditioner channel will need regular cleaning to remove any residual starch. See "Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer". Do not add starch formulations or viscous liquid starch to the § compartment as it will clog it up. See "Adding starch separately".
