DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES INFORMATION

Which detergent to use

The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is designed for automatic washing machines.

Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not know how hard your water is, enquire at your local water authority.

Do not use detergent that has hardended or solidified as the detergent may remain in the rinse cycle. It may cause your washing machine to not rinse properly or result in the overflow becoming blocked.

Detergent drawer

Your washing machine has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and fabric softener. Add all laundry additives to the correct compartment before starting your washing machine.

Do NOT open the detergent drawer when your washing machine is running.

1.Pull out the detergent drawer on the left side of the control

panel.

2. Add the recommended amount of laundry detergent directly into the detergent compartment before starting your washing machine.

3. Add the recommended amount of fabric softener into the softener compartment if required.

4.When using the Prewash option, add the recommended amount of laundry detergent into the prewash

compartment .

When washing large items do NOT use the following detergent types.

Tablet and capsule type detergents

Detergents using a ball and net

Concentrated or thick fabric softener and conditioner must be diluted with a little water before being poured into the dispenser (prevents the overflow from becoming blocked.)
