Good washing results also depend on the choice of
detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid
waste and protect the environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities, can upset the
delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of
fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour,
washing temperature and degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine detergents
may be used in this appliance:
 powder detergents for all types of fabric
 powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max)
and woollens
 liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature
wash programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric,
or special for woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must be placed in
the appropriate compartments of the dispenser
drawer before starting the wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme without
prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system
which allows an optimal use of the concentrated
detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations
on quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX»
mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.
The type and quantity of detergent will depend
on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling
and hardness of the water used.

on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
 you are washing a small load
 the laundry is lightly soiled
 large amounts of foam form during washing.

«degrees» of hardness. Information on hardness
of the water in your area can be obtained from
the relevant water supply company, or from your
local authority.
When the degree of hardness is soft, re-adjust
the quantity of the detergent.
