Note!
■
Agglomerating or ropy detergent or additive can be diluted in some water before
pouring it into the detergent dispenser, to avoid its inlet to get blocked and thus
cause a water overflow.
■
Please choose the suitable type of detergent to get a maximum of washing
performance and a minimum of water and energy consumption
■
To achieve the best cleaning result a proper detergent dosing is important.
■
Use a reduced detergent amount if the drum is not filled completely.
■
Always adjust the amount of detergent to the water hardness, if your tap water is
soft, use less detergent.
■
Dose according to how dirty your laundry is, less dirty clothes require less
detergent.
■
Highly concentrated (compact detergent) requires particularly accurate dosing.
