Detergent Advice

1. If your washer dryer smells you are probably not using enough detergent for the soil level in your loads. Run a

‘Drum Clean’ cycle and either try a better quality detergent or use a higher dose. If you are using an ‘Eco’
detergent, alternate the use of this with a mainstream detergent.

2. Add the detergent BEFORE starting the cycle, close the dispenser and do not open it while the cycle is running.

3. If you find foam leaking from your washer dryer, check you are using a low sudsing or front loader type

detergent and check the quantity you are using against the detergent manufacturers recommendation. You
may need to reduce the quantity you are using.

Fabric softener

Add fabric softener to the middle compartment of the dispenser marked with a

. The washer dryer will automatically flush the fabric softener during the rinse part of the cycle.

If You Wish to Use Fabric Softener We Recommend to:

1. Use it sparingly. Measure it carefully and do not use more than 25mls (1/2 cap), some thicker varieties may

need diluting.

2. Clean your dispenser regularly.

3. Clean your machine regularly using the ‘Drum Clean’ cycle.

4. Complete wash cycles at a wash temperature of 40°C or above at regular intervals (eg every 5th wash) as

washing in cold water increases the chance of scrud occurring (see below).

if you fill beyond the MAX mark, the fabric softener will be dispensed into the bowl prematurely and
contribute to scrud.

Scrud

Scrud is the name of the waxy build-up that can occur within any washing machine (including washer dryers) when
fabric softener comes in contact with detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the machine. If scrud is
allowed to build up in the machine it can result in stains on clothes and an unpleasant smell in your washer dryer.

If you wash a particularly dirty load, we recommend putting your washer dryer through a ‘Rinse’ cycle once the cycle has
