Detergent Drawer

Detergent drawer of your washing machine consists of four different compartments for powder main wash detergent, liquid main wash detergent, liquid softener and powder pre-wash detergent. Each of these laundry additives are dispensed automatically in the relevant time during the washing Programme.

Do not place the laundry additives directly into the drum. Always use the detergent drawer.

Do not close the drawer too fast after putting the laundry additives. This may cause the additives be dispensed early, creating unsatisfactory washing results and fabric damage.

C Do not open the drawer during washing Programme.

The detergent drawer compartments are indicated below:

1)Left compartment with number “II” (Main wash compartment for powder detergent or powder bleach/stain remover)

2)Left compartment with number “II ” (Main wash compartment for liquid detergent or liquid stain remover)

3)Middle compartment with number “I” (pre-wash compartment for powder detergent, powder stain remover or liquid bleach - liquid bleach must be added either during the pre-wash or during the first rinsing step of the washing Programme). Liquid bleach must be added manually while the machine takes in water.

4)Right compartment with “” symbol (liquid softener compartment)

(II) Main Wash Compartment

Before starting the washing Programme, put powder detergent into the left compartment with number “II”. Use the detergent manufacturer’s measuring cup and follow the instructions on the package. Powder bleach/stain remover must also be put into this compartment.

Put the liquid detergent into the main wash compartment with number “II ” before starting the washing Programme. Liquid stain remover must be put into this compartment.

Put the suggested amount of liquid detergent into the left compartment with “II ” symbol and dilute it to the maximum filling level line (max. II ) with warm water.

Particularly the concentrated detergents must be diluted with warm water; otherwise, the siphon may get clogged in time.

Do not fill the detergent above the maximum filling level line; otherwise the excess amount of detergent will reach the laundry without water and may cause stains on the garments.In this case you will need to refill the compartment. Do not pour the detergent onto the laundry directly since this may cause stains on the garments.

Liquid Softener Compartment

Put the suggested amount of liquid softener into the right compartment with “” symbol and dilute it to the maximum filling level line (max. ) with warm water.
