DETERGENT AND FABRIC SOFTENER
How much detergent?
The correct detergent dosage varies depending on the amount of soil in your load, the
size of the load and the water quality, so getting the correct dose takes some trial and
error. Use the instructions stated on the detergent package as a guide, then alter the
dosage according to the results.
If you overdose, you will get over foaming issues, but if you under-dose you will get poor
performance and over time your washer will start to smell as scum builds up inside it.
Detergent advice
1
If your washer smells you are probably not using enough detergent for the soil level
in your loads. Run a ‘Drum Clean’ cycle and either buy a better quality detergent or
use a higher dose. If you are using an ‘Eco’ detergent, alternate the use of this with a
mainstream detergent.
2
Add the detergent BEFORE starting the cycle, close the dispenser and do not open it
while the cycle is running.
3
If you find foam leaking from your washer, check you are using a low sudsing or front
loader type detergent and check the quantity you are using against the detergent
manufacturers recommendation. You may need to reduce the amount you are using.
4
If you find liquid detergent does not dispense completely from the ‘MAIN WASH Liquid’
compartment, try adding the liquid detergent to the ‘MAIN WASH Powder’ compartment
for the next wash. (Note: only do this if ‘PRE WASH’ is not selected, otherwise all
detergent will be used in the pre wash).
