Detergent dispenser
Good washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent
won't necessarily make for a more efficient wash,
and may in fact cause build up on the interior of
your appliance and even pollute the environment.
The detergent dispenser is located inside the tub;
to access it the door must be opened.
Open up the detergent
dispenser (see figure)
and pour in the
detergent and fabric
softener, as follows.
compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash
(or bleach if carrying out the bleach cycle)
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
When closing the door, the detergent dispenser
closes automatically.
Do not use hand wash detergent because it may
form too much foam.
Preparing your laundry
Divide your laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.
- the colours: separate coloured garments
from whites.
Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.
Do not exceed the weight limits stated below,
which refer to the weight when dry:
Sturdy fabrics: max 8,5 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max 4 kg
Delicate fabrics: max 3 kg
Wool: max 3 kg
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special items
Curtains:fold curtains and place them in a pillow
case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without
exceeding half the appliance load. Use programme
J which excludes the spin cycle automatically.
Trainers:remove any mud. They can be washed
together with jeans and other tough garments,
but not with whites.
