2. Pre-bleach method:
Laundry with heavy stains may be
PRE-BLEACHED in the machine prior to carrying out
a normal wash programme. Proceed by diluting the
bleach in approximately 1l water outside of the
washing machine in a small container.
For a machine with temperature selector:
•
Turn the programme selector to programme 4.
•
Turn the temperature selector to
Min
.
Warning:
Bleaching is only possible in a cold wash,
otherwise your laundry and your appliance will be
damaged.
For a machine without temperature selector:
•
Turn the programme selector to programme 5.
•
Press the special option button “cold wash”
(if available).
Warning:
Bleaching is only possible in a cold wash,
otherwise your laundry and your appliance will be
damaged.
Poor the diluted bleach into chamber
and start
the machine.
After this pre-bleach wash, do a normal wash, in
which more not bleachable laundry can be added.
Add detergent into chamber
and start a wash
programme. For this subsequent wash a lower
temperature wash programme (for example 40°C)
can be sufficient because of the pre-bleach
treatment. In this way energy can be saved.
Note:
Bleach should only be used with bleachable fabrics.
DYEING
Commercially available products usually consist of
a dye colour, fixing agent and salt.
Pour the dye colour, fixing agent and salt directly into
the empty drum, and only then load the laundry.
•
Only use products designed for use in washing
machines.
•
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Plastic and rubber components of the machine
can be stained by dyes.
