• powder detergents for delicate fabrics

(60°C max) and woollens

• liquid detergents, preferably for low tem-

perature wash programmes (60°C max)
for all types of fabric, or special for wool-
lens only.

The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme

without

 prewash must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s recom-
mendations on quantities to use and do

not exceed the «MAX» mark in the de-
tergent dispenser drawer

.

QUANTITY OF DETERGENT TO BE
USED

The type and quantity of detergent will de-
pend on the type of fabric, load size, de-

gree of soiling and hardness of the water
used.
Follow the product manufacturers’ instruc-
tions on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load
• the laundry is lightly soiled
• large amounts of foam form during wash-

ing.

DEGREES OF WATER HARDNESS

Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on hard-
ness of the water in your area can be ob-
tained from the relevant water supply com-
pany, or from your local authority. If the wa-
ter hardness degree is medium or high we
suggest you to add a water softener follow-
ing always the manufacturer’s instructions.
When the degree of hardness is soft, read-
just the quantity of the detergent.
