Laundry detergents and additives

Adding the correct amount of HE detergent

9WARNING

WARNING

To avoid risk of poisoning, keep detergents and cleaning products out of the reach of children.

Avoid overuse of detergent.

Measure out the detergent according to:

The amount of laundry.

The degree of soiling.

~ Sorting the Laundry; Page 17

The water hardness. This information can be obtained from your local water authority. Soft water requires less detergent.

Too much detergent

Excessive foam will reduce washing agitation and cause poor washing and rinsing results.

Not environmentally compatible (wastes detergent and is not good for the environment).

Too little detergent

Laundry will not be washed clean.

Eventually the laundry will take on a grey and hard appearance. Greyish-brown grease spots may stain the laundry, heating elements may begin to calcify.

The fabric care label is important for selecting the correct detergent, temperature and treatment of the laundry.

If desired you can visit the following sites for additional information on detergents and fabric care.
