different types according to the model
of your machine as seen above.
Detergent, softener and other cleaning
agents
• Add detergent and softener before
starting the washing programme.
• Never open the detergent drawer while
the washing programme is running!
• When using a programme without
prewash, do not put any detergent
into the prewash compartment
(compartment nr. I).
• In a programme with prewash, do not
put liquid detergent into the prewash
compartment (compartment nr. I).
• 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.

Use only detergents manufactured
specifically for washing machines.

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.
“II”.
• 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.
