ASHING A LOAD OF LAUNDR

Y

Make sure to insert brassieres (water washable) into a laundry net (to be 

purchased additionally).

•  The metal parts of the brassieres may break through the material 

and damage the laundry. Therefore make sure to place them inside 
a fine laundry net.

•  Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings and 

handkerchiefs may become caught around the door. Place them 
inside a fine laundry net.

  Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal 

vibrations that could move the washing machine and cause an accident resulting in 
injury.

DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES INFORMATION

Which detergent to use

The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate 
items, wool), colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry 
detergent, which is designed for automatic washing machines.
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the 
degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not know how hard your 
water is, enquire at your local water authority.

Do not use detergent that has hardended or solidified as the detergent may remain in 
the rinse cycle. It may cause your washing machine to not rinse properly or result in the 
overflow becoming blocked.

Detergent drawer

Your washing machine has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and fabric softener. 
Add all laundry additives to the correct compartment before starting your washing machine.

Do NOT open the detergent drawer when your washing machine is running.

1. 

Pull out the detergent drawer on the left side of the control 
panel.

2. 

Add the recommended amount of laundry detergent 
directly into the detergent compartment   before starting 
your washing machine.

3. 

Add the recommended amount of fabric softener into the 
softener compartment   if required.

4. 

When using the Prewash option, add the recommended 
amount of laundry detergent into the prewash 
compartment  .

When washing large items do NOT use the following 
detergent types.
•  Tablet and capsule type detergents
•  Detergents using a ball and net
Concentrated or thick fabric softener and conditioner 
must be diluted with a little water before being poured 
into the dispenser (prevents the overflow from becoming 
blocked.)
