DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES
Always use high efficiency, low foam detergent for a front loadmachine.
The choice of detergent depends on:
Type of fabric (cottons, easy care/synthetics, delicate items, wool)
Colour
The wash temperature
Degree and type of soiling
Note:
Use only specific detergents for washing wool
Remarks:
Any whitish residues on dark fabrics are caused by insoluble compounds used in
modern phosphate-free powder detergents. If this occurs, shake or brush out the
fabric or use liquid detergents. Use only detergents and additives specifically
produced for domes tic washing machines. When using descaling agents, dyes
or bleaches for the pre-wash, make sure that they are suitable foruse in domestic
washing machines. Descalers could contain products which could damage your
washing machine. Do not use any solvents (e.g. turpentine, benzine). Do not
machine wash fabrics that have been treated with solvents or flammable liquids.
Dosage
Follow the dosage recommendations on the detergent pack. They dependon:
Degree and type of soiling.
Size of wash.
Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions for a full load.
Half load: 3/4 of the amount of detergent used for a full load.
Minimum load (about 1 kg): 1/2 the amount of detergent used for a full load.
Depends on water hardness in your area (ask for information from your water
company) Soft water requires less detergent than hard water.
Notes:
Too much detergent can result in excess foam formation, which reduces washing
efficiency. If the washing machine detects too much foam, it may prevent
spinning. Insufficient detergent may result in grey laundry in time and also calcifies
the heating system, drum and hoses.
Stain removal
Blood, milk, eggs etc. are generally removed by the automatic enzyme phase of the
programme.
To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and fruit stainsadd a stain remover to the
main wash chamber of the detergent dispenser.
Pre-treat heavily-soiled areas with stain remover if necessary.

If you want to improve the rinse performance in the case of too much detergent
used.You can add the rinse times or press "Foam Clear" or "Spray" button
( Depend on models) before you start the program.
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 Fig. "C").
For use with liquid detergent: place the separator in the lower position. Secure the
separator in the chamber using the front guide rails. Position theseparator so that it
touches the bottom of the main wash chamber (Fig. "D")
