Detergents and laundry
8
Detergent dispenser
Good washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent won’t
necessarily make for a more efficient wash, and
may in fact cause a build up on the interior of your
appliance and even pollute the environment.
Open up the detergent
dispenser and pour in the
detergent and fabric 
softener, as follows:
compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash 
(powder)
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle 
(powder or liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured 
in immediately prior to the wash cycle start.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softener, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow from the
grid.
Do not use hand wash detergent because it may
form too much foam.
Preparing your laundry
Divide your laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.
- the colours: separate coloured garments from 
whites.
Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.
Do not exceed the weight limits stated below, 
which refer to the weight when dry:
Sturdy fabrics: max 6kg
Synthetic fabrics: max 2.5kg
Delicate fabrics: max 2kg
Wool: max 1.5kg
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500g
1 pillow case 150-200g
1 tablecloth 400-500g
1 bathrobe 900-1200g
1 towel 150-250g
Special items
Curtains:
fold curtains and place them in a pillow
case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without
exceeding half the appliance load. use programme
11 which excludes the spin cycle automatically.
Quilted coats and windbreakers:
if they are
padded with goose or duck down, they can be
machine-washed. Turn the garments inside out and
load a maximum of 2-3kg, repeating the rinse cycle
once or twice and using the delicate spin cycle.
Trainers:
remove any mud. They can be washed
together with jeans and other tough garments, but
not with whites.
Wool:
for best results, use a specific detergent,
taking care not to exceed a load of 1.5kg.
