Tips on dosing
Adjust the detergent dosage to the level
of soiling of the laundry and the size of
the load. Reduce the amount of
detergent with smaller loads (e.g.
reduce the amount of detergent by ⅓
when washing a half load).
Too little detergent results in:
- laundry not getting properly clean
and with time it may become grey
and hard to the touch.
- a build-up of mould in the washing
machine.
- grease not being completely removed
from the laundry.
- limescale deposits on the heater
elements.
Too much detergent results in:
- poor wash, rinse, and spin results.
- a higher water consumption as an
extra rinse cycle is automatically
activated.
- a greater burden on the environment.
Using liquid detergent with a pre-
wash
Liquid detergent cannot be used for the
main wash if the pre-wash has been
selected.
Use TwinDos dispensing if you are
activating the pre-wash.
Using detergent tablets or pods
Always
put detergent tablets or pods
directly in the drum with the laundry.
They cannot be added via the detergent
dispenser drawer.
See “Detergent” for further information
on detergents and dosage.
