Bleaches
If you are going to use regular bleach in your machine, it
is suggested to select a Programme with pre-wash step
and add the bleach at the beginning of the pre-wash
without putting detergent into the pre-wash compartment.
Alternatively, it is suggested to select a Programme with
extra rinsing and add the bleach while the machine takes
in water from the detergent drawer in the first rinsing step.
Bleach should not be mixed with detergent. Since the bleach
may cause irritation on skin, little amounts must be used
and rinsed thoroughly. Do not pour bleach directly onto the
laundry and do not use it with colour laundry.
When using oxygen based bleach, follow the instructions on
the package and select a Programme at low temperature.
Oxygen based bleach can be used together with the
detergent. However, if it is not at the same thickness with
the detergent, then it must be added from the compartment
number “II” right after the detergent foams with water.
Eliminating lime formation
• When required, use only appropriate lime removers
developed specifically for washing machines and always
follow the instructions on the package.
