WASHING
38
Adding fabric conditioner
Add fabric conditioner or liquid starch
to the
compartment.
Do not ex-
ceed the maximum level mark.
This will be automatically dispensed in
the final rinse cycle. At the end of the
wash programme a small amount of
water remains in the
compartment.
If starching frequently, thoroughly
clean the detergent drawer, espe-
cially the siphon, regularly.
Tips on dispensing
Adjust the detergent dosage to the de-
gree of soiling of the laundry and the
load size. Reduce the amount of deter-
gent with smaller load sizes (e.g. reduce
the amount of detergent by
¹⁄₃
when
washing a half load).
Too little detergent:
- Results in laundry not being cleaned
properly and may cause it to become
grey and hard to the touch over time
- Can lead to a build-up of mould in
the washer-dryer
- Results in grease not being com-
pletely removed from the laundry
- Can lead to limescale deposits on the
heater elements
Too much detergent:
- Causes poor wash, rinse and spin
results
- Causes higher water consumption as
an extra rinse cycle is automatically
activated
- Is a greater burden on the environ-
ment

information about detergents and how
much to dispense.
