7. Add detergent
Front loading washing machines
require special high efficiency
detergents. Closely follow the
requirements of the detergent
manufacturer.
Use detergent according to the laundry
soiling. Use less for smaller loads.
Light soiling
No soiling or stains are visible.
Normal soiling
Some visible soiling or a few light
stains.
Heavy soiling
Very visible soiling or stains.
Use the "Heavy soil" function and split
the detergent in the Heavy soil
compartment as described.
Too little detergent may cause:
–
laundry to not be cleaned effectively
and become gray and stiff over time.
–
grease to not be completely washed
from the laundry.
–
calcium deposits on the heater.
Too much detergent may cause:
–
oversudsing with poor wash, rinse
and spin results.
–
a higher water usage, because of an
extra rinse which is automatically
added
– a higher environmental burden.
