Detergent The correct detergent All modern detergents produced for automatic washing machines are suitable. Use dispensing aids, e.g. balls, if these are supplied with the detergent. Tablets are suitable for full loads, but note that it may be impractical to reduce tablets for smaller loads. Some tablets do not dissolve as rapidly as others, and may not be suitable for programmes with short durations. Do not use biological detergents on silk, as the enzymes may damage the silk.
Detergent The right amount to dispense will depend on the following: – The quantity of the laundry – The soiling level of the laundry Lightly soiled No visible dirt or stains. Possibly slight body odour. Water softener A water softener can be used to cut down on the use of detergents in hard water areas. Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging. First add detergent and then the water softener. Normally soiled Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight stains.
Detergent Fabric conditioners and liquid starch Fabric conditioners make garments soft to handle and help prevent static cling when tumble drying. Starch stiffens and gives body to items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen. Automatic dispensing of fabric conditioner or liquid starch to laundry at the end of a programme If starching frequently, thoroughly clean the dispenser compartment, especially the siphon tube and fabric conditioner channel, regularly.
Cleaning and care ,Disconnect the machine from the mains electricity supply and withdraw the plug from the socket before cleaning the machine. ,The washing machine must not be hosed down.
