4.5 ADDING DETERGENT AND ADDITIVE

The internal tray comprises three compartments, marked with the symbols

prewash detergent

main wash detergent

for fabric conditioner, starch, additives, etc. (e.g. treatment products). The additives are

added to the washing tank automatically during the final rinse.

The main wash detergent compartment has a tang allowing the use of liquid detergent. To

insert it, pull it towards the front and then lower it.

Following the recommendations in the "Pro-

grammes Table" supplied with this manual, place

the detergent and any additives in the drawer be-

fore the start of the programme.

Never fill with liquids above the maximum level

marked; otherwise the trays will empty too quickly.

Before pouring dense additives into the container, dilute

with a little water to ensure they do not clog the outlet.

Use only low-foam detergents suitable for use in a

washer-dryer.

The amount of detergent must be decided in relation of the hardness of the water, the

type and quantity of items loaded, and their degree of dirt.

This will provide the desired effect with optimal detergent consumption.

On detergent packs the recommended dose is indicated for 4 levels of water hardness and for

loads of 4-5 kg of laundry with average dirt levels.

Request information about the water's hardness from your water supply company.
