And in which form?
Not only are there different types of detergent, but
they are also available in different forms. Whether
you chose a powder or liquid in traditional or
compact form is to own 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.
Bounce conditioning sheets for use
in a tumble dryer. We recommend
the conditioning sheets are pinned
(using a safety pin) to an article
of laundry and placed in the
tumble dryer.
Use of detergent and additives
Which detergent?
To ensure you obtain the best wash results from
your appliance, it is important to use the right
detergent in your everyday wash, and only
detergents recommended for use in automatic
machines.
To maintain the appearance of your clothes and
household textiles and to make them last longer
you should use different types of detergent for
different washes, whether for whites, colours or
delicates.
Whites
We recommend the Ariel product
range which is biological and
designed to provide excellent
cleaning and stain removal even
at low temperatures.
Non Biological
If you prefer to use a non
biological detergent, which does
not contain enzymes we
recommend Fairy. Fairy provides
good cleaning and stain removal.
Coloureds
For coloured items you should use
a detergent which is designed to
clean while maintaining the original
colour.
Ariel Color does not contain bleach
and therefore helps to preserve
colours.
Delicate Items
When washing delicates such as
woollens, you should use a product
which is specially designed to care
for fine fabrics.
Dreft Automatic is suitable for
woollens and other delicates.
Laundry Bleach
For additional stain removal you
may wish to use a product such as
Ace Gentle Bleach which is used in
addition to your chosen detergent.
Ace is suitable for all washable
fabrics including silks, woollens and
coloureds.
