Using the washer
4. Adding detergent
Use detergent according to the laundry soiling and water hardness.
Too little detergent may cause:
–ineffective cleaning of laundry; fabrics may become gray and stiff over time.
–grease stains on the laundry.
–hard water deposits on the heating element.
Too much detergent may cause:
–oversudsing with minimal drum movement; poor wash, rinse and spin results.
–higher environmental burden.
