-make sure that the plug fitted to the machine is compatible with the power supply socket. If it is not, get a suitably qualified person to fit the correct type, and to make sure that the cables to the mains socket are able to cope with the power rating of

the appliance

-ensure that the dishwasher does not crush power cables

- if

there

is

a water softening device installed in the home there is no need to add

salt to the water softener fitted in the dishwasher

-

the dishwasher

is designed for normal kitchen utensils.

Objects

that

have been contamined by petrol, paint, traces of steel

or

iron,

corrosive chemicals, acids or alkalis must not be washed in the dishwasher

-

if you wish to dispose of an

old

dishwasher be

careful

to remove

the

door

to

eliminate the risk of children becoming trapped inside it

- the dishwasher has been made from materials which can be recycled so that it can

be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way

-

in

general

it

is not advisable

to

use adaptors,

multiple

plugs

and/or

extension

cables

-

Water left

in

the machine or on the dishes at the end

of

the

wash

programme

should not

be swallowed.

-Leaning or sitting on the open door of the dishwasher could cause it to tip over.

-Cutlery is washed best if it is placed in the basket with the handles downwards; however, to avoid any injury from blades or sharp points, it can be placed with the handles upwards.

-Should it be necessary to replace the supply cord, call the Service Department.

-This appliance is designed for domestic use only.

If the appliance breaks down or stops working properly, switch it off, turn off the water supply and do not tamper with it. Repair work should only be carried out by an approved service agent and only genuine spare parts should be fitted. Any failure to follow the above advice may have serious consequences for the safety of the appliance.

INSTALLATION (Technical notes)

After unpacking, adjust the height of the dishwasher. For the dishwasher to work correctly it must be level. Adjust the feet so that the machine does not tilt by more than 2 degrees. If it you need to move the machine after removing the packaging, do not try to lift it by the bottom of the door. Follow the instructions in figure. Open the door slightly and lift the machine by holding on the top.

Important: when the appliance is located on a carpet floor, attention must be paid to ensure that there is no obstruction to the bottom vents.

Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation.

This appliance complies with Directives 89/336/EEC, 73/23/EEC and following changes.

Electrical connection

This appliance complies with all the international safety standards and is fitted with a 3 pin plug with earth connection to ensure complete earthing of the product.

In the absence of adequate earthing you will notice that when touching the metal parts of your appliance an electrical dispersion can be felt due to the presence of a radio interference suppressor.

Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply it is important to ensure:

–That the supply socket is properly earthed.

–That your electricity supply is capable of meeting the consumption requirements listed on the rating plate of your appliance.

Important: manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damages due to nonearthing of the machine.

Water connection

The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.
The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or		hot water, as long	as	it is
no hotter than 60 °C.
Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. If the pressure is below
the minimum consult our service department for advice.
The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that		the water supply can	be	cut off
when the machine is not in use (fig.1 B).
The dishwasher is fitted with 3/4" threaded connector (fig. 2).
Connect inlet hose	A to water tap	B with a 3/4" attachment making sure that it has
been properly tightened.

If it is necessary to lengthen the inlet pipe, an extension pipe can be fitted.

If limescale deposits or sand are present in the water, it is advisable to obtain the appropriate filter, art. 9226085, from the Service Centre (fig. 3).

4

5

The	filter	D must	be inserted between the tap	B and the inlet hose	A, remembering
to	fit the	washer	C .

If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been in use for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.

3

Connecting the outlet hose

The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4).

The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm. It is advisable to fit an anti-odour air trap (fig. 4 x). If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,6 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level.

The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink (it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation) (fig. 4 y).

When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 4 z). Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.

Installation in fitted kitchens

Fitting between existing cabinets

The height of the dishwasher, 85 cm, has been designed in order to allow the machine

to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached.

The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof (fig. 5).

The work top can be easily adjusted to line it with the top of existing cabinets; this is done by moving it by 5 mm each time up to a maximum of 25 mm.

To adjust it, unscrew the two screws at the back and fix the top in the position required (fig. 6).

Underneath existing work top (when fitting beneath a work top)

In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted.

In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (fig. 6).

The height will then be reduced to 82 cm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top (fig. 7).

Closing the door

Place the baskets in the machine.

Make sure that both the spray arms are free to rotate and are not obstructed by cutlery, crockery or pans. Close the door, pressing on it to make sure it is firmly shut.

Water softener unit

Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.

The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The softener unit

can treat water with a hardness of up to 60°fH (French grading) or 33°dH (German grading) through five different settings.

The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.

Regulating the water softener

The table below lists different degrees of water hardness with the corresponding								setting
for the softener unit.

Loading the salt

	The dishwasher is fitted with a softener which
	clears the water of lime which could cause scale
	and damage	the dishwasher.
	On the bottom of the machine there is a container
	for the salt for regenerating the softener.
	The filter medium of the softening plant must be
	reactivated with dishwasher water softener
	regenerating salt.
	Other types of salt contain small quantities of
	insoluble	particles which over a long period of
	time may affect and deteriorate the softener
	performance.
	To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on
	the bottom and then refill the container.
During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container
is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the
tap.
If the dishwasher is not required straightaway, set the Prewash programme so that
the salt solution which has overflowed is discharged from the washing tank.
The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of
the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the
water softener unit.

Important: it is necessary to add water until the container overflows. Only install the dishwasher after completely filling the salt container.

Salt loading indicator

This model is provided with a blind cap. In this case, the salt level must be checked periodically, according to the regulation of the water softener unit.

Important: the appearance of white stains on dishes is generally an important sign that the salt container needs filling.

Loading dishes

To load dishes

For good wash performance remove any debris from the dishes (bones, tooth picks,

the remains of meat and vegetables) to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing arm nozzles and, as a result, reducing washing efficiency.

Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.

If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food, it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.

Using the upper basket

The upper basket is provided with mobile racks hooked to the sides of the basket which can be regulated in two positions: upright and lowered. In the lowered position the racks may be used for tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives and ladles. Glasses with stems may be safely hung on the ends of the racks.

Glasses, cups, saucers and dessert plates may be loaded under the racks.

Soup plates and ordinary plates may be loaded with the rack in the upright position.

Plates should be loaded vertically with the underside of the plate towards the back of the dishwasher with a space between each plate to allow water to pass freely.

It is advisable to load plates of the same size together in order to utilize maximum basket capacity.

Plates may be loaded in a single row (Fig. 1) or on both rows (Fig. 2).

It is advisable to load large plates (approx. 27 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the rear to facilitate introduction of the basket into the machine.

Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisable to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.

The upper basket has been designed to offer maximum flexibility in use and can be loaded with up to 24 plates on two rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a mixed load.

Using the lower basket

Saucepans, oven dishes, tureens, salad bowls, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates, soup plates and ladles can be loaded on the lower basket.

Place the cutlery in the plastic cutlery holder with the handles pointing upwards. Place the cutlery holder on the lower basket (fig. 3), making sure that the cutlery does not get in the way of the rotating arms.

Loading the detergent and the rinse aid.

Filling the detergent container

It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid or tablet form.

Unsuitable detergents (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher and stop the dishwasher from working correctly.

	Normal wash
	The	detergent		container is inside the door
	(fig. A “2”). If the lid of the container is closed
	press the button to open.
	At	the	end	of	every wash cycle the lid is
	always open and ready for the next time the
	dishwasher		is used.
	The amount of detergent to be used varies
	according to how dirty the dishes are and on
	the type of dishes to be washed.
	We advise using 20-30 gr of detergent in the
	wash section of detergent compartment (1).
	After pouring the detergent into the
	container close the lid.
	the boxes of detergent can
vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the
dishes properly	whilst too much detergent will not produce better	results		and	is also
a waste. Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the
environment at the same time.
Wash with soaking cycle (prewash)
If setting the	Universal Intensive wash programme				, a second dose of about 20 gr

of detergent (1 table-spoon) must be added to the machine in the prewash section of detergent compartment (2).

Filling the rinse aid container

		The rinse aid container can be found to the
	3	right	of	the	detergent		container: it has a
		capacity of about 130 ml (Fig A "3"). Turn the
		cap (3) anticlockwise and pour enough liquid
		to last several washes, up to the maximum
		level shown. Replace the cap.
		The	rinse		aid,	which	is	automatically
		released during the last rinsing cycle, helps
		the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots
		and stains		forming.
		It is always advisable to use rinse aid.
		Check the rinse aid level through the indicator
FULL	EMPTY	eye which is situated in the centre of the
		dispenser (4).

	The limestone content of the water considerably
	affects the formation of limescale and the
	drying performance.
	It is therefore important to		regulate		the
	quantity	of rinse aid to	achieve	good
	washing results.
	If, after the wash, streaks		occur	on	the
	dishes, decrease the amount by one position.
	If whitish spots occur, increase		the amount
	by one position.

The filter system (fig.A “4”) consists of:
a	central		container			that	traps	the	larger
particles.
a		flat	gauze	that	continuously filters				the
wash		water
a	micro filter			, located		beneath	the	gauze,
that		traps	the tiniest particles ensuring a
perfect rinse.
To achieve excellent results every time, the
filters should be checked and cleaned after
each		wash.
To	remove		the filter unit, simply turn the
handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
For ease of cleaning, the central container is
removable (fig. 2).
Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the
whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary
a small brush can be used.
With the			Self-cleaning Micro filter						, mainte-
nance is reduced and the filter unit need only
be checked every two weeks. Nevertheless,
after each wash it is advisable to check that
the central container and the gauze filter are
not clogged.
NB: after cleaning the filters, make sure
that they are correctly reassembled and
that the gauze filter is properly positioned
at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Make sure that the filter is screwed back,
clockwise,			into the gauze, as poor
seating of the filter unit could have an
adverse effect on the efficiency of the
appliance.
Warning:			never	use	the	dishwasher

without the filters.

Practical hints

Selecting the programme

This dishwasher offers you a wide range of wash programmes so that you can choose the most suitable according to the type of dishes and how dirty they are. Refer to the PROGRAMME LIST to choose the most suitable programme.

Useful hints
In	order to avoid any dripping from the top rack,		remove the lower rack first.
If	the dishes are to be	left in the machine for	some time, leave the door ajar, to let
some air circulate and to		improve the drying performance.

How to make SAVINGS

1)If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD PRE-WASH cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load of dishes. When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle programme.

2)If the dishes are not very dirty or if the baskets are not very full select an ECONOMY programme, following the instructions in the program list.

How to get really good wash RESULTS
1) Place the dishes face downwards.
2) Try to place the dishes in such a way	that they are not touching one another. If
they are loaded properly you will get better	results.

3)Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher remove any remaining food (bones, shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, skin of fruit, cigarette ash etc. that could clog up the outflow and the washing arm jets.

4)After loading the dishes check that the washing arms can rotate freely.

5)Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.

6)To wash silver properly:

a)rinse the silver immediately after use, especially if it has been used for mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.

b)do not sprinkle detergent onto it

c)keep it separate from other metals

What to DO if

1) You want to stop the dishwasher to put in more dishes whilst it is in the middle of a wash.

Open the door only after pressing the O/I button so that the dishwasher is in OFF. After closing the door, wait 3 minutes before starting up the machine again.

What not to wash
It should also be remembered that not all dishes are	suitable for	washing in a
dishwasher.
We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with
wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium,
crystal, leaded glass unless otherwise stated.
Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea	before loading	the whole

batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade. It is also a good idea not to put silver cutlery with non-stainless steel handles into the dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them.

IMPORTANT

When buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

16

17

Cleaning and maintenance

The outside of the cabinet can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaning agent suitable for a gloss finish.

The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is selfcleaning. Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid. It is advisable to remove limestone deposits or dirt periodically, by doing an empty wash; pour a glass of vinegar on the bottom of the tank and select

the light wash.

If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are

not	properly washed or rinsed, check that all	the spray	heads on the	rotor	arms
(fig. A “5”) are clear.
If	they are blocked, clean them in the following way:
To remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it		lines up	with the stop	marked	by the

arrow (fig. 1b). Push it upwards and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction. To reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise.

The lower rotor arm can be removed simply by pulling it upwards (fig. 2).

•wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads.

•When you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position.

1	1b		2

The water heater element is made of a special stainless steel which after a while may change colour; this does not in any way affect its performance or its working life. Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots

caused by oxidation occur, this	is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents
in the water. The spots can	be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use
chlorine based materials, steel	wool, etc.

WHEN CYCLE IS FINISHED

After every wash it is essential to turn off water supply and to switch off the machine

by pressing the On/Off button to the off position. If the machine is not going to be used for some time, it is advisable to follow these rules:

1.do an empty wash with detergent in order to clean the machine of any deposits.

2.pull out the electric plug.

3.turn off the water tap.

4.fill the rinse aid container.

5.Ieave the door ajar.

6.Keep the inside of the machine clean.

7.If the machine is left in places where the temperature is below 0°C any water left

inside the pipes may freeze. Wait until the temperature rises above zero and then wait for about 24 hours before starting up the dishwasher.

N.B.: Should any of the situations occur and should the machine give a bad wash performance, it is necessary to remove the deposits from the dishes by hand since the final drying cycle hardens the deposits which a second wash in the machine would not be able to remove.

If the malfunction continues contact a Service Centre quoting the serial number of the	dishwasher.
This is found on the plaque on the inside of the dishwasher door at the top or on the guarantee.
This information will make it possible to take more effective action more quickly.

Instalación en cocinas modulares

Acoplamiento

El lavavajillas tiene la altura modular de 85 cm		y por consiguiente puede ser
acoplado a los muebles de las modernas cocinas modulares de análoga altura. Para
una perfecta alineación, maniobrar en los pies regulables.
La tapa superior es de laminado de	alta resistencia	que puede	utilizarse	sin
ninguna particular precaución ya que	es resistente al	calor, a la	abrasión	y es
anti-manchas (fig. 5).

La profundidad de la tapa superior se puede regular facilmente hasta 25 mm para alinearlo al plano de los muebles adyacentes.

Para su regulación, destornillar los 2 tornillos posteriores y fijarlos en la posición deseada (fig. 6).

Encastre (Para su colocación debajo de la encimera)

Las cocinas modulares más modernas tienen un plano de trabajo único, bajo el que son encastrados los muebles y los electrodomésticos. En este caso basta quitar la tapa superior, sacando los tornillos que se encuentran bajo el mismo en la parte posterior (fig. 6).

La altura se reduce de esta forma a 82 cm, tal como está previsto en las Normas Internacionales (ISO) y el lavavajillas se encastra perfectamente bajo el plano contínuo de la cocina (fig. 7).

Apertura de la puerta

Introducir la mano en la cavidad de apertura y presionar hacia arriba.

Si la puerta se abre durante el funcionamiento de la máquina, un sistema de seguridad eléctrico hace que todas las funciones se interrumpan automáticamente.

Evitar abrir la puerta del lavavajillas mientras éste funcione.

30

31

Para cerrar la puerta

Introducir los cestos.

Verificar que todas las aspas de lavado puedan girar y no hayan cubiertos, cacerolas o platos que impidan su rotación.

Cerrar la puerta y presionar con fuerza hasta el cierre del dispositivo de seguridad.

Sistema de regulación de la descalcificación del agua

El agua contiene de forma variable, según la localidad, sales calcáreas y minerales que se depositan en la vajilla dejando manchas blanquecinas.

Cuanto más elevado sea el contenido de estas sales, mayor es la dureza del agua.

El lavavajillas contiene un descalcificador que, utilizando sales regenerantes especiales para lavavajillas, permite lavar la vajilla con agua sin agentes clacáreos.

El descalcificador puede tratar agua con una dureza hasta 60° fH (grados franceses) 33° dH (grados alemanes) a través de cinco niveles de regulación.

Puede solicitar el grado de dureza de su agua al Ente distribuidor de su zona.

agua ya es dulce.

- Según el nivel de dureza de su agua debe

regular el descalcificador de la siguiente

manera:

- Extraer el cesto inferior, desenrroscar y

extraer el tapón del depósito de sal

regenerante situado el la parte inferior de la

cuba (fig A”1”).

TIPO 2

- Girar el selector hasta evidenciar la posi-

ción deseada con la ayuda de un destornil-

lador o un cuchillo.

Cargar la	sal
				El lavavajillas está provisto de un descalcifica-
				dor que depura el agua de la cal que podría
				inscrustarse y dañarlo.
				En la parte inferior de la máquina esta situado el
				depósito de la sal. La sal sirve para regenerar el
				aparato descalcificador.
				La masa filtrante del		sistema de depuración
				debe ser reactivada con sal de "regeneración"
				para	descalcificadores	de lavavajillas.Otros
				tipos de sal contienen sensibles porcentajes de
				sustancias insolubles que con el tiempo podrían
				hacer ineficiente la instalación de descalcificación.
Para la introducción de la sal, desenroscar el tapón del depósito que se encuentra
en la parte inferior. Después llenar el depósito.
Durante esta operación saldrá un poco de agua, aun así continue echando sal hasta
llenarlo. Una vez lleno, limpiar la rosca de granos de sal y roscar el tapón. Si no debe
efectuarse a continuación ningún lavado, colocar el programa						Prelavado frio	para
que la solución salina derramada se desagüe. El contenedor tiene una capacidad de
cerca de 1,5-1,8 kg de sal y, para una eficaz utilización del aparato, es necesario
rellenarlo periódicamente según la regulación del nivel de descalcificación elegido.
Importante:Después		de	haber instalado el lavavajillas, y haber			llenado
el depósito	de sal,	es	necesario añadir agua hasta		llenar completamente

el deposito. Esta operación solo es preciso realizarla la primera vez.

Indicador del llenado de sal

Este	modelo está dotado de tapón ciego, en tal caso, es oportuno controlar	periódica-
mente	el nivel de sal, según la regulación del nivel de descalcificación elegido.

Importante: la aparición de manchas blanquecinas en la vajilla es generalmente un índice importante de falta de sal.

Uso del cesto superior

El cesto superior esta dotado de unos soportes móviles fijados al panel lateral, y que pueden adoptar dos posiciones: levantada y bajada. En posición bajada los soportes sirven para poner tazas de té, café, cuchillos largos y cucharones. En los extremos de tales soportes se pueden colgar los vasos con forma de copa.

Por debajo de ellos, se pueden poner los vasos pequeños, tazas, los platos de las tazas y los de postre.

En posición levantada, los soportes permiten el alojamiento de los platos llanos y hondos.

Estos ultimos se colocan en posición vertical con el lado cóncavo dirigido hacia el interior, y dejando siempre un espacio entre plato y plato para que el agua pueda pasar sin dificultad.

Para aprovechar al máximo la capacidad del cesto se aconseja reagrupar los platos que sean iguales. Los platos pueden colocarse en una sola fila (fig. 1), o en las dos (fig. 2).

Es aconsejable colocar los platos grandes, con un diámetro de unos 270 mm, un poco inclinados hacia el interior y así poder meter el cesto sin problemas.

En el cesto superior pueden colocarse también elementos como ensaladeras y cuencos de plástico, que se recomienda fijar para que no se den la vuelta con la presión de los chorros de agua.

El cesto superior ha sido estudiado para poder ofrecer la máxima flexibilidad de uso. Éste puede llenarse únicamente con platos, colocados en doble fila hasta un máximo de 24 piezas, únicamente con vasos, en cinco filas hasta un máximo de 30 piezas, o bien con una carga mixta.

Uso del cesto inferior

En el cesto inferior se colocan las cacerolas, sartenes, soperas, ensaladeras, tapas, fuentes, platos planos, platos hondos y cucharones.

Los cubiertos se colocarán con el mango hacia abajo en el depósito contenedor de plástico que después se introducirá en el cesto inferior (fig. 3) asegurándose que no bloqueen la rotación del rociador.

Carga de detergente y abrillantador

Carga del detergente

Es indispensable utilizar un detergente específico en polvo,				líquido	o en
pastillas para	el lavado de vajillas.	No	deben	emplearse	detergentes	para el
lavado de la ropa. Detergentes no idóneos (como los de uso para lavado a mano),
no contienen los ingredientes adaptados al lavado en lavavajillas				e impiden	el
correcto funcionamiento de la máquina.
		Lavado normal
		La caja para el detergente de lavado está
		situada en el interior de la puerta (fig. A "2").
		Si la tapa del contenedor resultase cerrada,
		para abrirla basta accionar sobre el pulsante
		de enganche: al término de				cualquier
		programa	de	lavado la puerta debe estar
		siempre abierta, y lista para su sucesiva
		utilización.
		La dosis de detergente puede variar en fun-
		ción del grado de suciedad y tipo de vajilla.
		Nosotros le aconsejamos utilizar de 20 ÷ 30
		gr de detergente en la cubeta lavado (1).
		Después de haber vertido el detergente en
		el contenedor volver a cerrar la puerta.
		Puesto	que	los detergentes no son todos
		iguales, consulte las instrucciones del fabricante.
		provoca una	incompleta
eliminación de la suciedad, mientras, un exceso de detergente, no sólo no mejora el
resultado del lavado, sino además, representa un despilfarro.
No excederse	en el uso de detergente representa una contribución al
mantenimiento del medio ambiente.
Lavado con suavizante
En caso de	programa UNIVERSAL INTENSIVO			, hay que añadir en la máquina una

segunda dosis de detergente, unos 20 gramos (1 cucharada sopera) en la cubeta prelavado (2).
