Washing a Load of Laundry
DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES INFORMATION
Which detergent to use
Use powdered or liquid detergent. Do not use soap as the tub may become dirty from dirt on it.
•
When the detergent does not dissolve properly, use warm water to dissolve the detergent.
•
Use the appropriate amount of detergent.
Even if an excessive amount of detergent is used, there is little difference in the washing
result. However, It may damage the garments as there may be insufficient rinsing.
•
Bleaching agents may cause damage to garments as they are a strong alkali.
•
Perform sufficient rinsing as powdered detergent can easily remain on the garments causing
bad odors.
•
If too much detergent is used or cold water is used, the detergent doesn’t dissolve
completely and remains on the garments, hose or spin basket, contaminating the laundry.
•
For a delayed start, the detergent must be added into the detergent drawer. If powder
detergent is spread directly onto the laundry, it may cause discoloration.
Detergent drawer
The detergent drawer is located inside the washer at the back.
Adding detergent
1.
Open the detergent drawer and then add the powder detergent into the detergent dispenser.
2.
Add detergent evenly so that it doesn’t brim over the edge of the drawer.
If softener is added over the baseline, it may overflow.
