q Unfold the sorted items of
clothing and place them loosely
into the drum. Mix up large and
small items. Items of varying
size will distribute better during
the spin cycle.
i Do not exceed the maximum
load. Overloading will cause
poor wash results and
encourage wrinkling.
For best results it is recommended
to load the drum depending on the
fabric type, see special programs
Page 18 for information on bulky
items, e.g. comforters :
Full Load
Cotton and Linens
½ Load
Permanent Press, Synthetic Blends
and Knitwear
D Load
Wool, Delicates, Silk
q Close the door.
Do not trap any items of
clothing between the door and
rubber seal.

Laundry
Detergents
and Additives
Dispensing the correct
amount of detergent
d WARNING d
TO AVOID RISK OF POISONING!
Keep detergents and additives
out of the reach of children.
Measure out the detergent (powder
or liquid) according to:
- The water hardness. This
information can be obtained
from your local water authority.
- The amount of laundry.
- The degree of soiling.
Information on soiling can
be found on Page 16.
- The specifications of the
detergent manufacturer.
Measuring the correct amount
of detergent relieves the strain
on the environment and
ensures optimum washing
results.
Too little detergent:
The laundry is not cleaned properly
and will eventually become gray
and stiff. Grayish brown spots (fat
globules) may appear on the
laundry. The heater may calcify.
Too much detergent:
Not environmentally friendly,
excessive suds reduce wash
agitation producing poor washing
and rinsing results or may prevent
proper spinning.
Filling laundry deterĆ
gent and/or additives
q Open the flap of the detergent
dispenser.
q Add the detergent and/or
additive.
Dispenser I:
Dispenser for detergent, stain
remover.
i We recommend HE
detergents becasue they are
particularly designed to
deliver optimum
performance from your
front-loading washer. Not
using HE detergent could
cause problems such as
oversudsing, extended cycle
periods, or a decrease in
wash performance.
Dispenser II:
Cleaning additives, e.g. fabric
softener, fabric conditioner. Do not
fill over edge of max line!
Dispenser III:
Dispenser for liquid bleach (chlorine
bleach, color safe bleach).
Do not overfill!
i Concentrated or thick fabric
softener, conditioner and
powder-bleach must be diluted
with a little water before being
poured into the dispenser
(prevents overflow due to
obstruction).
q Close the flap of the detergent
dispenser.
Decolorizing
CAUTION
Dyes may contain sulphur or
chlorine. These substances may
cause parts of the washing
machine to corrode. Do not dye
items of laundry in the washing
machine.
