Detergent drawer
o Open the washing machine lid
and pull out the detergent
drawer to add detergent
powder to the wash program.
Then push the drawer back in
before introducing laundry
into the machine and setting
the wash program. Only
powder detergents should
be placed in the drawer.
o If you wish to place detergent powder directly into the drum, you
should dilute it first in warm water. You can then place the
diluted detergent powder into the drum halfway through the
main wash fill. When you lift the lid to introduce the detergent,
you should ensure the machine has paused before doing so.
IMPORTANT: Do not place undiluted detergent powder directly
onto clothes as this can cause discoloration.
IMPORTANT: You should always use a low sudsing detergent in
your appliance.
o Liquid detergent can also be used if it is diluted first with a lot of
water and then placed into the drum. You should follow the same
procedure for detergent powder but choose a slightly higher
water level.
11
Bleaching agents
o A bleaching agent can be used if it first diluted with plenty of
water before pouring it into the drum.
o You should always follow the manufacturer’s directions when
using a bleaching agent to avoid damage to clothing.
o You should always wash the laundry as soon as possible after
the bleaching agent has been added. If the bleaching agent is
allowed to sit on clothes for a long period it can cause damage.
Softener
o An automatic softener input device is not available with this
machine. If you would like to use softener, you should pause
the wash program before the last bleaching operation and
introduce softener manually.
o You should always follow the manufacturer’s directions when
using softener to avoid damage to clothing.
The amount of detergent that you need to use in your appliance will
depend on:
o The degree of soiling. Lightly soiled garments in general
require less detergent.
o The size of the wash load. A smaller wash load will require a
reduction in the amount of detergent.
o The hardness of your tap water. The harder your water is,
then the more detergent you will need to use. The detergent
manufacturers normally give guidance as to how much extra
detergent should be used, depending on the hardness of the
water.
