Fabric softener
Choosing the right cycle
If you wish to use fabric softener you will need to select the SOFTENER option which will give you a deep rinse. If SOFTENER is not selected, the fabric softener will not be dispensed.
Adding the fabric softener
Measure softener out into the cap and pour into the fabric softener dispenser. The softener will remain in the top of the dispenser until the deep rinse, where water flushes it into the bowl.
Note: If you fill beyond the MAX mark, the overflow will pour fabric softener into the bowl prematurely and contribute to Scrud
(refer below). | Fig.11 Adding softener into |

Cleaning the dispenser
The funnel of the fabric softener dispenser (the top) clicks off easily. Simply place a finger down the centre and lift. The remaining siphon tube and fabric softener well is not removable and needs to be wiped clean with hot water and an old toothbrush periodically. If the siphon tube looks partially blocked use a cotton bud to clean.

If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend: Use it sparingly.
Measure it carefully to ensure you do not fill above the MAX level. Clean the dispenser as soon as the cycle has finished.
Clean your machine regularly using the AUTO CLEAN cycle (see page 25).
