Samsung F500 Washing Machine with ecobubble, 7 kg Benutzerhandbuch

Using your washing machine

With your new Samsung washing machine, the hardest part of doing laundry will be deciding which load to 
wash first.

Detergent and Additives Information

Using the proper detergent

The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), 
colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use "low suds" laundry detergent, which is designed 
for automatic washing machines.
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of 
soiling, and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not know how hard your water is, enquire at 
your local water authority.

Do not use detergent that has hardened or solidified as the detergent may remain in the rinse cycle. It 
may cause your washing machine to not rinse properly or result in the overflow becoming blocked.

Using the detergent drawer

Your washing machine has separate compartments for dispensing detergent and fabric softener.
Add all laundry additives to the correct compartments before starting your washing machine.

CAUTION: Do not open the detergent drawer while the washing machine is running.
You might be exposed to hot water or steam.
When Delay End is selected, do not apply detergent directly into the drum. Otherwise, this may discolour 
the laundry. Use the detergent drawer when Delay End is selected.

When washing large items, do not use the following types of detergent.
• 

Tablet and capsule type detergent

• 

Detergent using a ball and net

: Detergent for prewash, 

or starch.

: Detergent for the main 

wash, water softener, pre-soaking agent, bleach and stain 
removal product.

: Additives, e.g. fabric softener (fill no 

higher than the lower edge (MAX) of "A").

The actual appearance of the softener guide may differ with the 
model.
