Particularly the concentrated softeners
must be diluted with warm water;
otherwise, the siphon may get clogged in
time.
Do not fill the softener above the
maximum filling level line; otherwise the
excess amount of softener will get mixed
with the washing water and you will need
to refill the compartment. Do not pour the
softener onto the laundry directly since
this may cause stains on the garments.
Liquid softener will be dispensed
automatically at the final rinsing step of
the washing Programme.
(I) Pre-Wash Compartment
Put the powder pre-wash detergent or
powder stain remover into the middle
compartment with number “I”.
You can also put liquid bleach into this
compartment while the machine takes
in water during pre-wash or first rinsing
step. Adding the liquid bleach while
the machine takes in water allows it to
be diluted before it is poured onto the
laundry.
You must select extra rinsing option
if you use liquid bleach in a washing
Programme. Bleach must be removed
from the laundry with rinsing; otherwise it
may cause itching on the skin.
C
Read the dosage instructions and
label of your garments carefully before
using the liquid bleach.
Starch
• Add liquid starch, powder starch
or the dyestuff into the softener
compartment as instructed on the
package.
• Never use fabric softener and starch
together in the same washing cycle.
• Wipe the inside of the drum after
using starch.
Bleaches
If you are going to use regular bleach in
your machine, it is suggested to select
a Programme with pre-wash step and
add the bleach at the beginning of the
pre-wash without putting detergent into
the pre-wash compartment. Alternatively,
it is suggested to select a Programme
with extra rinsing and add the bleach
while the machine takes in water from
the detergent drawer in the first rinsing
step. Bleach should not be mixed with
detergent. Since the bleach may cause
irritation on skin, little amounts must be
used and rinsed thoroughly. Do not pour
bleach directly onto the laundry and do
not use it with colour laundry.
When using oxygen based bleach, follow
the instructions on the package and
select a Programme at low temperature.
Oxygen based bleach can be used
together with the detergent. However, if
it is not at the same thickness with the
detergent, then it must be added from
the compartment number “II” right after
the detergent foams with water.
Eliminating lime formation
• When required, use only appropriate
lime removers developed specifically
for washing machines and always
follow the instructions on the
package.
