OPERATION

Adding Detergents, 

Softeners and Bleaches

Detergent Dosage

•  Detergent should be selected according to fabric 

type, colour, soil level and washing temperature 

and should be used according to the detergent 

manufacturer’s instructions.

•  Too much detergent results in excessive suds 

which cause poor washing.

•  When you use liquid detergent, follow the 

guidelines provided by the detergent 

manufacturer.

•  You can pour liquid detergent directly into the 

main detergent drawer if you are starting the 

wash cycle immediately. It is also recommended 

that it be added into the drum when loading the 

clothes.

•  Do not use liquid detergent if you are using 

Delay

 function, or if you have selected 

Pre 

Wash+Cotton

 option, as the liquid may harden.

•  Reduce the amount of detergent if too many 

suds are formed.

•  Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for 

water temperature, water hardness, size and soil 

level of the clothes. For best results, avoid 

oversudsing.

•  Refer to the label of the clothes, before choosing 

the detergent and water temperature.

•  Use only suitable detergents for the respective 

type of clothing:
-  General powdered detergents for all types of 

fabric

-  Powdered detergents for delicate fabric
-  Liquid detergents for all types of fabric or 

designated detergents only for wool

•  For better washing performance and whitening, 

use detergent that contains general powdered 

bleach.

•  Detergent is dispensed from the dispenser at the 

beginning of the cycle.

•  Dilute liquid detergent with water, pour into the 

drum and start the cycle.

CAUTION

•  Using liquid detergent without diluting, or 

leaving clothes for a long time after pouring 

diluted liquid detergent into the drum might 

cause the clothes to be damaged, bleached, 

discoloured.

NOTE

•  Do not let the detergent harden. Doing so may 

lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or 

odour.

•  Full load: According to manufacturer’s 

recommendation.

•  Part load: 3/4 of the normal amount
•  Minimum load: 1/2 of full load

Adding Detergents

•  Add the measured amount of detergent into the 

detergent compartment 

a

.

•  Use more detergent if you have hard water, 

large items, greasy or oily soils or lower water 

temperature.

•  Soap flakes or granulated soap powders should 

not be used in the appliance. When washing 

woollens, remember to use detergent suitable 

for washing woollens.

NOTE

•  Use the appropriate amount of detergent. Too 

much detergent, bleach or softener may cause 

an overflow or a malfunction.
