How much detergent and fabric
softener?
The amount to be used depends on:
the load:
if the detergent manufacturer does not make any
specification for small loads, use a third less for half
loads, and for very small loads only use half of the
amount of washing powder recommended for a full
load.
the degree of soiling of the washing:
for only lightly soiled washing use less washing
powder. Follow the instructions of the detergent
manufacturer.
the water hardness:
the harder the water, the higher the dosage!
Using a water softening agent
In hard water areas, the use of a water softening agent
can reduce the amount of detergent necessary. See
manufacturers recommendations.
And in which form?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but they
are also available in different forms. Whether you
choose a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form
is down to personal choice.
Traditional Powders
Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do
not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum.
Traditional Liquids
Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of
the detergent drawer marked with the symbol
, start
the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in
the dispenser drawer.
Alternatively the detergent is measured into the specially
designed dosing device* which should be placed on top
of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum.
Compact Powders and Liquids
Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also
known) are available in liquid or powder form, and
generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the most
economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the
dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent
into the specially designed dosing device* which should
be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the
machine drum.
*If you use a dosing device in a washer dryer,
please ensure the dosing device/ball is removed
before carrying out a drying programme.
Fabric Conditioners
These are ideal for improving “softness”, and also
reduce static cling on synthetics and make ironing easier.
They are available in two types:
For example Lenor liquid fabric softener, for use in the
washing machine/washer dryer. The liquid fabric
softener should be poured into the compartment marked
with the symbol
.
Follow the manufacturer’s dosage instructions and never
exceed the MAX level.
