The percentage amounts in the
display will help you to add the
correct percentage amount of
detergent recommended by the
manufacturer.
The percentage shown relates to the
amount of detergent recommended by
the manufacturer on the packaging.
50%
= Add half the amount
recommended
60%
= Add slightly more than half
the amount recommended
75%
= Add three quarters of the
amount recommended
100%
= Add the full amount of
detergent recommended
Take the level of soiling and water
hardness into account.
It is important to dispense the correct
amount, because
Too little detergent results in:
– Laundry not getting properly clean
and with time it may become grey
and hard to the touch.
– Greasy particles clinging to laundry.
– Limescale deposits on the heater
elements.
Too much detergent results in:
– Excessive foam which causes a low
level of agitation and poor wash,
rinse and spin results.
– High water consumption (an
additional rinse cycle will
automatically switch in).
– A burden to the environment.
