Amount of detergent
The best washing results will only be achieved if you add the
correct amount of detergent.

-ing
When using liquid detergents, you can use any measuring ai-
ds provided with the detergent, such as dosage balls of bags.
Please put the liquid detergents into correct chamber.
The amount of detergent depends on:
- water hardness
- degree of soiling
- size of load
- amount of detergent to be added according to its manufactu
-rer.
Dispensing the correct amount of detergent relieves the strain
on the environment and ensures optimum washing results.
Frequent use of insufficient detergent will eventually become
noticeable as followings:
- washing appears grey or not properly clean
- grey-brown stains (grease marks) form on the washing
Too much detergent results in:
- unnecessarily high environmental pollution
- due to the generation of too much foam, the washing is hard
-ly agitated which leads to poor washing results.
The amount of detergent indicated on its packaging refers to
a full machine load.
For small loads or less soiling, reduce the amount of detergent.
