Detergent, softener and other
cleaning agents
• Add detergent and softener before
starting the washing programme.
• Never open the detergent drawer
while the washing programme is
running!
• When using a programme without
prewash, do not put any detergent
into the prewash compartment
(compartment nr. I).
• In a programme with prewash, do not
put liquid detergent into the prewash
compartment (compartment nr. I).
• Do not select a programme with
prewash if you are using a detergent
bag or dispensing ball. Place the
detergent bag or the dispensing ball
directly among the laundry in the
machine.
• If you are using liquid detergent, do
not forget to place the liquid detergent
cup into the main wash compartment
(compartment nr. II).
Choosing the detergent type
The type of detergent to be used
depends on the type and colour of the
fabric.
• Use different detergents for coloured
and white laundry.
• Wash your delicate clothes only with
special detergents (liquid detergent,
wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for
delicate clothes.
• When washing dark coloured clothes
and quilts, it is recommended to use
liquid detergent.
• Wash woolens with special detergent
made specifically for woolens.

Adjusting detergent amount
The amount of washing detergent to be
used depends on the amount of laundry,
the degree of soiling and water hardness.
Read the manufacturer’s instructions
on the detergent package carefully and
follow the dosage values.
• Do not use amounts exceeding the
dosage quantities recommended
on the detergent package to avoid
problems of excessive foam, poor
rinsing, financial savings and finally,
environmental protection.
• Use lesser detergent for small
amounts or lightly soiled clothes.
• Use concentrated detergents in the
recommended dosage.
Using softeners
Pour the softener into the softener
compartment of the detergent drawer.
• Use the dosages recommended on
the package.
• Do not exceed the (>max<) level
marking in the softener compartment.
• If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute
it with water before putting it in the
detergent drawer.
Using liquid detergents
If the product contains a liquid
detergent cup:
• Make sure that you have placed the
liquid detergent cup in compartment
nr. “II”.
• Use the detergent manufacturer’s
measuring cup and follow the
instructions on the package.
• Use the dosages recommended on
the package.
• If the liquid detergent has lost its
fluidity, dilute it with water before
