Warning: 

Use only detergents 

manufactured specifically for 
washing machines.  

 

Detergent,  softener  and  other  cleaning 
agents  

• Add detergent and softener before starting 
the washing programme.  
•  Never  leave  the  detergent  drawer  open 
while the washing programme is running. 
• When using a programme without prewash, 
do  not  put  any  detergent  into  the  prewash 
compartment (compartment no. "1"). 

 

•  In  a  programme  with  prewash,  do  not  put 
liquid 

detergent 

into 

the 

prewash 

compartment (compartment no. "1").  
• 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 
no. "2").  

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  with  special 
detergents  only  (liquid  detergent,  wool 
shampoo,  etc.)  used  solely  for  delicate 
clothes.  
•  When  washing  dark  coloured  clothes  and 
quilts,  it  is  recommended  to  use  a  liquid 
detergent.  

Wash woollens with special detergent made 

specifically for woollens.  

 
 
 
 

 
Adjusting detergent amount  

The amount of washing detergent to be used 
depends  on  the  amount  of  laundry,  the 
degree of soiling and water hardness.  
• Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage 
quantities  recommended  on  the  detergent 
package  to  avoid  problems  of  excessive 
foam  and  poor  rinsing.  Using  the  correct 
amount  will  also  save  you  money  and  help 
the environment.  
•  Use  less  detergent  for  small  amounts  or 
lightly soiled clothes.  

Using softeners  

Pour 

the 

softener 

into 

the 

softener 

compartment of the detergent drawer.  
•  Do  not  exceed  the  (>max<)  level  marking 
in the softener compartment.  
• If the softener has lost its “fluidity”, dilute it 
with  water  before  pouring  it  into  the 
detergent drawer.  

Using liquid detergents  

If the machine has a liquid detergent cup:  
•  Make  sure  that  you  have  placed  the  liquid 
detergent cup in compartment no. "2".  

If  the  liquid  detergent  has  lost  its  “fluidity”, 

dilute  it  with  water  before  pouring  it  in  the 
detergent cup.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

If  the  product  does  not  have  a  liquid 
detergent cup 

• Do not use liquid detergent for prewashing 
in a programme with prewash.  
•  Liquid  detergent  stains  clothes  when  used 
with  the  Delayed  Start  function.  If  you  are 
going  to  use  the  Delayed  Start  function,  do 
not use liquid detergent.  

Using gel and tablet detergent  

Apply  the  following  instructions  when  using 
tablet, gel and similar detergents.  
• If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and 
your  machine  does  not  have  a  dedicated 
liquid  detergent  cup,  pour  the  gel  detergent 
into  the  main  wash  detergent  compartment 
during the first water intake. If your machine 
has  a  liquid  detergent  cup,  pour  the 
detergent  into  the  cup  before  starting  the 
programme.  
•  If  the  gel  detergent  thickness  is  not  fluidal 
or it is a capsule liquid tablet, place it directly 
into the drum before washing.  
• Place tablet detergents into the main wash 
compartment  (compartment  no.  "2")  or 
directly into the drum before washing.  

Tablet detergents may leave residues in the 
detergent compartment. If  this should occur, 
place the tablet detergent in amongst the 
laundry near the lower part of the drum for 
future washes. 

 

Use 

the tablet or gel detergent without 

selecting the 

prewash function.
