clothing to get caught between the

Adding detergent/additives
Warning! Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use in
domestic washing machines.
Dose detergent and additives according to the instructions of the de-
tergent and additive manufacturers. Follow the advice on the packag-
ing.
Dosing depends upon:
– the washing’s degree of soiling,
– the size of the load
– the degree of hardness of the water supply.
• If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a
half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the
detergent that is recommended for a full load.
