• Do not select a programme with prewash if you are
using a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the
detergent bag or the dispensing ball directly among the
laundry in the machine.
• If you are using liquid detergent, do not forget to
place the liquid detergent cup into the main wash
compartment (compartment nr. II).
Choosing the detergent type
The type of detergent to be used depends on the type and
colour of the fabric.
• Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry.
• Wash your delicate clothes only with special detergents
(liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for
delicate clothes.
• When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, it is
recommended to use liquid detergent.
• Wash woolens with special detergent made specifically
for woolens.
A Use only detergents manufactured specifically for
washing machines.
A Do not use soap powder.
Adjusting detergent amount
The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the
amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness.
Read the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent
package carefully and follow the dosage values.
• Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities
recommended on the detergent package to avoid
problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial
savings and finally, environmental protection.
• Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled
clothes.
• Use concentrated detergents in the recommended
dosage.
Using softeners
Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the
detergent drawer.
• Use the dosages recommended on the package.
• Do not exceed the (>max<) level marking in the softener
compartment.
• If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water
before putting it in the detergent drawer.
Using liquid detergents
If the product contains a liquid detergent cup:
• Make sure that you have placed the liquid detergent cup
in compartment nr. “2”.
• Use the detergent manufacturer's measuring cup and
follow the instructions on the package.
• Use the dosages recommended on the package.
• If the liquid detergent has lost its fluidity, dilute it with
water before putting in the detergent cup.
If the product does not contain a liquid detergent cup:
• Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a
programme with prewash.
• Use the detergent manufacturer's measuring cup and
follow the instructions on the package.
• Liquid detergent stains your clothes when used with
Delayed Start function. If you are going to use the
Delayed Start function, do not use liquid detergent.
Using gel and tablet detergent
When using tablet, gel, etc. detergents, read the
manufacturer's instructions on the detergent package
carefully and follow the dosage values. If there is not any
instruction on the package, apply the following.
• If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and your
machine does not contain a special liquid detergent
cup, put the gel detergent into the main wash detergent
compartment during first water intake. If your machine
contains a liquid detergent cup, fill the detergent into
this cup before starting the programme.
• If the gel detergent thickness is not fluidal or in the
shape of capsule liquid tablet, put it directly into the
drum before washing.
• Put tablet detergents into the main wash compartment
(compartment nr. II) or directly into the drum before
washing.
C Tablet detergents may leave residues in the detergent
compartment. If you encounter such a case, place the
tablet detergent between the laundry, close to the lower
part of the drum in future washings.
C Use the tablet or gel detergent without selecting the
prewash function.
Using starch
• Add liquid starch, powder starch or the dyestuff into the
softener compartment as instructed on the package.
• Do not use softener and starch together in a washing
cycle.
• Wipe the inside of the machine with a damp and clean
cloth after using starch.
Using bleaches
• Select a programme with prewash and add the
bleaching agent at the beginning of the prewash. Do
not put detergent in the prewash compartment. As an
alternative application, select a programme with extra
rinse and add the bleaching agent while the machine
is taking water from the detergent compartment during
first rinsing step.
• Do not use bleaching agent and detergent by mixing
them.
• Use just a little amount (approx. 50 ml) of bleaching
agent and rinse the clothes very well as it causes skin
irritation. Do not pour the bleaching agent onto the
clothes and do not use it for coloured clothes.
• When using oxygen based bleaches, follow the
instructions on the package and select a programme
that washes at a lower temperature.
• Oxygen based bleaches can be used together with
detergents; however, if its thickness is not the same
with the detergent, put the detergent first into the
compartment nr. “2” in the detergent drawer and wait
until the detergent flows while the machine is taking
in water. Add the bleaching agent from the same
compartment while the machine is still taking in water.
