Adding fabric softener or starch
If fabric softener is desired, it will work
more effectively and be gentler on the
clothes if it is dispensed in the final
rinse cycle of the wash, rather than in
the dryer with softener sheets. To auto
-
matically dispense fabric softener:
^
Open the lid of compartment
p.
^ Pour an amount of liquid fabric soft-
ener into compartment
p according
to the manufacturer’s instructions. Do
not exceed the maximum fill level
marked inside the compartment, as
the excess will prematurely activate
the siphon and be wasted.
^
Close the compartment lid and push
in the dispenser drawer.
The softener will automatically be dis
-
pensed during the final rinse cycle.
At the end of the program a small
amount of water will normally remain in
compartment
p. A high water level in
this compartment, however, may indi
-
cate that the dispenser drawer was
opened, or the siphon is clogged. In
this case, the siphon tube should be
cleaned (see “Cleaning and Care”).
Starch
Starching can be performed separately
(see below) or can be included in any
wash program as part of the final rinse.
Never mix fabric softener and starch to
-
gether in compartment
p. This can
clog the dispenser.
If starch is used for shirts, blouses, ta-
ble cloths, napkins, etc., pour the
liquid starch into compartment
p (use
the same procedure as for fabric soft-
ener).
Using the “Starch” program to dis-
pense liquid starch.
Prepare the starch solution accord
-
ing to the manufacturer’s instructions
and pour it into compartment
i.
Use the normal water level (Water
Plus button “out”) when starching so
that the solution will have the maxi
-
mum effect.
“Without final spin” can be selected to
reduce fabric creasing.
