4.1 Detergent
Choose your detergent relevant to the laundry you wish to wash (cotton, wool,
synthetic etc.), the temperature and the level of contamination; otherwise a strong

clothing, so rinse them thoroughly. If you use too much detergent or if the water-
temperature is too low, the detergent will not dissolve completely; so residuals of
the detergent may remain in the clothing, the hoses and the appliance itself.
Customise the washing procedures relevant to the grade of contamination of the
laundry, your local water hardness and the information given on the packaging of
your detergent. For information about the water hardness, ask your local water
