Although biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities, can
upset the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the
type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons,
etc.), the colour, washing temperature and
degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine
detergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(60°C max) and woollens
• liquid detergents, preferably for low
temperature wash programmes (60°C
max) for all types of fabric, or special for
woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the wash
programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
recommendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the
detergent dispenser drawer .
Quantity of detergent to
be used
The type and quantity of detergent will
depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree
of soiling and hardness of the water used.
Follow the product manufacturers’
instructions on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load
• the laundry is lightly soiled
• large amounts of foam form during washing.
Degrees of water
hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on
hardness of the water in your area can be
obtained from the relevant water supply
company, or from your local authority. If the
water hardness degree is medium or high we
suggest you to add a water softener following
always the manufacturer’s instructions. When
the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the
quantity of the detergent.
