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.

Please note the following when using the Wool course.

Use a neutral liquid detergent for wool only.

When using a powder detergent, it may remain on the laundry and cause damage to the material (wool).

Be careful that the fabric softener does not overflow, when you close the detergent drawer after adding fabric softener into the rinse detergent compartment.
