5. Add detergent

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.

Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and add detergent to the compartments as follows:

Detergent for the pre-wash (divide the total recommended amount as follows:

add 1/3 to compartment  and 2/3 to compartment )

Detergent for the main wash, including Soak, if selected

Fabric conditioner or liquid starch

Close the detergent dispenser drawer.

Tip: See "Detergent" for further information.
