Unsatisfactory wash results
Problem
Possible cause
Remedy
You used liquid
detergent and the
laundry isn't clean.
Liquid detergents usually
do not contain bleaching
agents. They may fail to
remove fruit, coffee and
tea stains..
– Use powdered detergent that
contains bleach.
– Load the detergent into the
compartment
j
.
– Never load liquid detergent
and a stain remover together
into the dispenser drawer.
There is a sticky
grey residue on the
laundry (fat
deposits).
Not enough detergent
was used to break down
the grease in heavily
soiled laundry.
– For heavily soiled laundry,
you can add more powdered
detergent, or use liquid
detergent.
– Before washing the next
load, run the 60°C wash
program with liquid
detergent, but no laundry in
the machine.
There are white
spots that look like
powdered
detergent on your
dark garments.
Some powdered
detergents contain an
insoluble mineral
ingredient (zeolites) that
acts as a water softener.
This can form a deposit
on fabrics.
– Once the laundry is dry, try
using a brush to remove the
flecks.
– In the future, use detergents
without added water softener
to wash your dark items.
Most liquid detergents do not
contain zeolites (water
softeners).
– Use the
Darks
program only
for these items.cf
