DETERGENTS

Overdosing detergent will not give better re- sults, it only increases the burden on the envi- ronment.

Try using less detergent, and increase the dose only if you are displeased with the washing re- sults.

TEXTILE DYEING

If you want to dye fabrics in the machine, select Normal with the Super rinse option. Choose a temperature according to recommendations from the dye maker.

If the fabrics to be dyed are mixtures such as cotton/polyester, you should select a spin speed of 800 revolutions/minute.

See chapter 11, Making own washing pro- grammes (Super rinse) and chapter 9, Washing

-Temporary alterations (Spin speed), to see how these selections are made.

NOTE

Bleaches or stain removers that contain the che- mical Na2S2O4, known as sodium dithionite or sodium hyposulphite, must not be used in this washing machine. If these substances are used they could cause corrosion and discoloration.

NOTE

Put the dye directly in the drum - not in the detergent compartment. After dyeing, the emp- ty machine should be run using the same pro- gramme. Use a normal amount of detergent.

WASHING TIME

The -symbol indicates that the remaining washing time is shown at the bottom right in the display within ten minutes after the wash- ing programme starts.

When a programme is choosen the washing time is calculated. The calculated washing time can vary from time to time due to the tempera- ture of incoming water.

The remaining time is recalculated during the programme and may then be increased or reduced to some extent.
