Where to put detergent and additives

The detergent drawer has three chambers (fig. “A”).

Prewash Chamber
• 
Detergent for the prewash

Main Wash Chamber
• 
Detergent for the main wash
• Stain remover
• Water softener

Softener Chamber
• 
Fabric softener
• Liquid starch
Pour additives only up to the “MAX” mark.

Using chlorine bleach
• 
Wash your laundry in the desired programme (Cotton, Synthetics), 

adding an appropriate amount of chlorine bleach to the SOFTENER 
chamber (close the detergent dispenser carefully).

• Immediately after end of programme, start the “Rinse and Spin” 

programme to eliminate any residual bleach smell; if you want, 
you can add softener.
Never put both chlorine bleach and softener into the softener 
chamber at the same time.

Using starch

• Select the “Rinse and Spin” programme and check that the spin 

speed is adjusted to not more than 800 rpm.

• Start the programme, pull out the detergent dispenser so that you 

can see approximately 3 cm of the softener chamber. 

• Pour the starch solution prepared into the softener chamber 

while the water is running into the detergent dispenser.

How to position the separator in the main wash 
chamber for powder or liquid detergent

For use with powder detergent: place the separator in the higher 
position.
Lift the separator until its top can be reclined. Place its hooks on the 
upper end of the back guide rails and slightly push the separator 
down to fix it (fig. “C”). 
A gap should remain between the separator and the bottom of the 
main wash chamber, if the separator has been correctly installed (fig. 
B” and “C”).
You can also take out the separator completely if the detergent amount 
makes it necessary.
For use with liquid detergent: place the separator in the lower 
position. Secure the separator in the chamber using the front guide rails.
Position the separator so that it touches the bottom of the main 
wash chamber 

 (fig. “D”).
