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 tumble dryer through the use of sof-
tener sheets. To automatically dispense
fabric softener:
Open the lid of compartment p.
Pour an amount of liquid fabric sof-
tener into compartment p according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not exceed the maximum fill level
marked inside the compartment, as
any 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 last 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 siphon is clogged or the
dispenser drawer was opened during
the last rinse cycle, thereby interrupting
the distribution of fabric softener. In this
case, the siphon tube should be
cleaned as described on Page 21.
Starch
Starching can be done as a separate
cycle (see below) or can be included in
any wash program during the final rinse.
Never mix fabric softener and starch
together in compartment p. This can
cause the overflow system to malfunc-
tion.
If starch is used for shirts, blouses,
table cloths, napkins, etc., pour the
liquid starch into compartment p (use
the same procedure as for fabric sof-
tener).
Using the “Starch” program to dis-
pense liquid starch.
– Prepare the starch solution in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s in-
structions and pour it into compart-
ment p.
– 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.
