Washing Agents and How Much to Use

Use only washing powder for machine washing. 
Use special washing agents for delicate and 
woolen fabrics.  
This washing machine was designed for washing 
powder as well as for liquid detergent. As to the 
quantity of the washing agent, refer to the 
manufacturer's recommendation. The quantity of 
washing agent recommended on the packaging 
is usually sufficient for normally soiled laundry, 
depending on the hardness of the water. 
If your water is hard, we recommend using water 
softener. This means that you can then use the 
same quantity of washing powder as if the water 
was soft (hardness degree 1). Follow 
manufacturer's instruction. 
 

Dispenser 

The detergent dispenser is divided into three 
sections (fig. 12). The table of the program 
shows which section to use. 
 

 

 
Always add washing agents before switching on 
the machine and keep the dispenser clean and 
dry. This allows washing agent to be thoroughly 
rinsed from the dispenser. 

Programs without a pre-wash cycle, the 
detergent can be put directly into the drum. 
This is especially convenient if: 

 you use larger amounts of detergent (very hard 

water), 

 you use detergent which is hard to rinse from 

the dispenser, 

 water pressure is low, 

 you use a concentrated detergent special 

dosing sack which should be inserted directly 
in the drum. 

 
Using not enough detergent causes 

 the laundry to turn grey, 

 greasy clots, 

 lime deposit in the machine and on the laundry. 

 

Using too much detergent causes 

 bubbling, 

 reduced agitation and washing effect, 

 inadequate rinsing. 

 

We recommend that you gradually decrease or 
increase the quantity of washing agent depending 
upon the soil level condition of the linen.

 

 
 

Fabric Conditioner and Starching 
Agent 

When using fabric conditioner or starching 
agent, always follow the manufacturer's 
instructions, but never fill higher than the 
level marked on the dispenser. The excess is 
immediately poured out before the program 
begins washing and is therefore lost (waste).

 

When using the high density liquid agent we 
recommend mixing it with water before filling, as 
otherwise the dispenser outlet may clog. 
In case the dispenser is clogged and the liquid is 
not flushed, the dispenser should be washed. 
Remove level indicator and wash with brush and 
lukewarm water or rinse under the tap (fig. 13). 

 

 

 

     

 

Never use both fabric conditioner and starching 
agent together as this combination may cause 
the dispenser opening to clog.  
 

Liquid Washing Agents 

(for some models only) 
If the washing machine is equipped with partition 
plate, the middle section may also be used for 
liquid washing agents. 
Lift the partition plate when using washing 
powders and push it in when using liquid 
detergent.   
We recommend using liquid detergent with 
washing program without pre-wash. 
 

 

 

 

1. Washing powder 

 

2. Liquid detergent 

 

These sections are used for washing powder

 

This section is used for liquid softener and 

starching agent.
