The right washing detergent
• Do not use other cleaning agents, such
as scouring powder, household cleaners,
etc. These will damage the appliance and
your laundry.
The right dosage
The motto “more is better” does not apply to
detergents and fabric-care products. They
must be dosed properly to achieve the perfect
wash result. Here are some tips:
• If necessary, use a smaller dosage of
detergents and fabric-care products if the
drum is not filled completely. For exam-
ple, for half loads, only use about half the
amount needed for a full drum.
• Always adjust the amount of detergent
to the respective hardness of the water.
If your tap water is soft, you need less
detergent. Information about the water
hardness in your area is provided by the
waterworks responsible. The water hard-
ness is also shown on the invoice from
your water supplier.
• Dose detergent according to how dirty
your laundry is. Laundry that is less dirty
requires less detergent.
• Highly concentrated detergent (also
known as compact detergent) in particular
requires accurate dosage. Even minor dif-
ferences can have significant effects.
The following wash results are a sign of incor-
rect dosage of detergent.
Too much detergent:
– Heavy foam formation
– Poor washing and rinsing result
– Skin irritation caused by leftover detergent
in the clothing
Not enough detergent
– Laundry turns grey
– “Grease marks” (grey clumps of grease
and dirt) on laundry
– Build-up of limescale deposits in the drum,
heating elements and/or laundry
Fabric-care products
• Do not use fabric softener in the same
wash cycle as starch, fabric conditioner,
or finishes.
• Before dispensing viscous fabric-care
products, mix them together with a little
water to thin them out.
• Only use powder starch according to the
instructions on the packet and not with
high temperatures, or it may form clumps.
