Preparing the wash cycle

And in which form?

Not only are there different types of detergent, but they are also available in different forms. Whether you chose a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is your own personal choice.

TRADITIONAL POWDERS

Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.

TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS

Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer marked with the symbol , start the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in the dispenser drawer.

Alternatively the detergent is measured into the specially designed dosing device* which should be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.

COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS

Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also known) are available in liquid or powder form, and generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent into the specially designed dosing device* which should be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.

*If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer, please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed before carrying out a drying programme.

FABRIC CONDITIONERS

These are ideal for improving “softness”, and also reduce static cling on easy-cares and make ironing easier. They are available in two types:

•For example Lenor liquid fabric softener, for use in the washing machine/washer dryer. The liquid fabric softener should be poured into the compartment

marked with the symbol . Follow the manufactur- er’s dosage instructions and never exceed the MAX level.

•Bounce conditioning sheets for use in a tumble dry- er. We recommend the conditioning sheets are pinned (using a safety pin) to an article of laundry and placed in the tumble dryer.
