If the washing results are not satisfactory
If the washing turns greyish and limescale deposits are present in the drum
•Insufficient washing powder has been added.
•Incorrect washing powder was used.
•Stains were not pretreated.
•Program or temperature was not set correctly.
•When using modular washing powders the individual components were not used in the correct ratio.
If there are still grey stains on the washing
•Washing soiled with ointments, grease or oils was washed with insufficient washing powder.
•The temperature selected for the wash was too low.
•A frequent cause is that fabric softener especially a concentrated one has come into contact with the washing. Wash out these types of stains as fast as possible and use the fabric softener carefully.
If after the final rinse foam is still visible
•Modern washing powders can still cause foam in the final rinse cycle. The washing is nevertheless sufficiently rinsed.
If there are white residues on the washing
•These are insoluble contents of modern washing powders. They are not the result of an insufficient rinse.
Shake out the washing or brush it off. Turn the washing inside out before washing it. Review your choice of powder, possibly use liquid detergents.
