9 Add detergent
It is important to dispense the correct
amount, because . . .
. . . too little results in the following:
– Laundry will not be properly clean
and will in time become grey and
hard to the touch.
– Greasy particles cling to the laundry.
– Limescale deposits on the heater ele-
ments.
. . . too much results in the following:
– Excessive foam which causes a low
level of agitation and poor wash,
rinse and spin results.
– High water consumption (an addi-
tional rinse cycle will automatically
switch in).
– A burden to the environment.
Pull out the detergent drawer and
place detergent in the compartments
as follows:
i = Detergent for Pre-wash
(if selecting Pre-wash, add 1/4
of the total amount recommended)
j = Detergent for the main wash
including Soak
§ = Fabric conditioner or liquid starch.
See section on “Detergent” for further
information on detergent and the
amount to dispense.
