How much Detergent
Adding Detergent
The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work cloches
may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).
For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent manufacturer.
Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine about half-way
through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of foam may
look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough Detergent has
been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine. 
If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause environmental
pollution, so use it accordingly.
Add measured detergent to the detergent compartment of the dispenser drawer.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
Detergent is flushed through the dispenser at the beginning of the wash phase. Either powdered or liquid detergent
can be used.
When using liquid detergent, make sure the detergent box and insert are in place. For powdered detergent, remove both
the detergent box and insert. Powdered detergent will not dispense with the detergent box and insert in place.
Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load.
Avoid using too much detergent in your washer, as it can lead to oversudsing and detergent residue being left on
the clothes.

Choosing the right Detergent
Using Detergent
Using Detergent
Follow the Detergent package directions. Using too little Detergent is a common cause of laundry problems.
Use more Detergent if you have hard water, large loads, greasy or oily soils or lower Water Temperature.
We recommend the use of domestic Detergent, (powder, liquid or concentrated). Soap flakes or granulated soap
powders should not be used in your washing machine. When washing woolens remember to use Detergent
suitable for washing woolens.
