How to Use Laundry Starch
Laundry starch makes your clothes crisp in texture.
Synthetic laundry starch is a stiffening agent.
• To use laundry starch, simply add it to the softener compartment, next to where you add detergent. It
will automatically be applied to your clothes as part of the final rinsing cycle.
• If it’s hard to pour, you can dilute the starch slightly with water before adding it to the softener
compartment. Make sure you don’t fill the compartment over the MAX level.
After using starch, clean the detergent drawer, especially the softener cover. Then remove any
excess starch in the drum, run a “Quick Wash” programme without detergent.
How to Use a Water Softener
If the water in your area is hard, deposits will form in the drum. To reduce the hardness of the water, you
will need to add a water softening agent after the detergent to the main wash compartment. If you use
other treatments like fabric softener or a stain remover, add them to your wash in the following order:
1. Detergent
2. Water Softener
3. Stain remover
