Loading the laundry
d WARNING
TO AVOID EXPLOSION HAZARD!
Items of clothing that have been
pretreated with solventĆbased
cleaning agents, e.g. stain remover
and dry cleaning solvents, represent
an explosion hazard once loaded
into the washing machine.
Therefore, these items must first be
rinsed thoroughly by hand.
NOTICE
Loose debris in the washing
machine drum can damage the
laundry. Before loading the laundry,
check that there is no debris in the
drum.
q Open the door.
q Place items loosely into the drum.
Mix up large and small items.
Items of varying size will distribute
better during the spin cycle.
For best results, it is recommended to
load the drum depending on the fabric
type.

Permanent Press, Synthetic Blends
and Knitwear
D Load

Do not exceed the maximum load
for the selected cycle. Overloading
will cause poor wash results and
will increase wrinkling.
q Load the drum at least half full for
Cotton and Permanent Press
cycles. Small loads will tend to
create an unbalance condition.
q Close the door completely. The
door should close easily. It should
not be necessary to force the door

Laundry
Detergents and
Additives
Adding the correct
amount of detergent
d WARNING
TO AVOID RISK OF POISONING!
Keep detergents and additives out
of the reach of children.
Measure out the detergent (powder or
liquid) according to:
-
The water hardness. This
information can be obtained from
your local water authority. Soft
water requires less detergent.
- The amount of laundry.
- The degree of soiling. Information
on soiling can be found on Page
19.
- The specifications of the detergent
manufacturer. Measuring the
correct amount of detergent
reduces the strain on the
environment and ensures optimum
washing results.
Too little detergent:
The laundry is not cleaned properly and
will eventually become gray and stiff.
Grayish brown spots may appear on
the laundry. The heater may calcify.
Too much detergent:
Excessive suds reduce wash agitation
producing poor washing and rinsing
results and may prevent proper
spinning.
Filling laundry detergent
and/or additives
q Open the detergent dispenser
drawer.
