Adding fabric softener
 Add the fabric softener or the liquid
starch to the compartment. Do not
exceed the maximum level mark.
This will be automatically dispensed in
the final rinse. At the end of the wash
programme a small amount of water
remains in the  compartment.
Starch can make the siphon tube
sticky. If starching frequently,
thoroughly clean the detergent
drawer, especially the siphon,
regularly.
Tips on dosing
Adjust the detergent dosage to the level
of soiling of the laundry and the size of
the load. Reduce the amount of
detergent with smaller load sizes (e.g.
reduce the amount of detergent by ¹⁄₃
when washing a half load).
Too little detergent results in:
- laundry not getting properly clean
and with time it may become grey
and hard to the touch.
- a possible build-up of mould in the
washer-dryer.
- grease not being completely removed
from the laundry.
- possible limescale deposits on the
heater elements.
Too much detergent results in:
- poor wash, rinse, and spin results.
- a higher water consumption as an
extra rinse cycle is automatically
activated.
- a greater burden on the environment.
See "Washing - Detergent" for further
information about detergents and how
much to dispense.
