Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance of nature. The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling. All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance: • powder detergents for all types of fabric, • powder detergents for delicate fabrics (40°C max) and woollens, • liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only. Quantity of detergent to be used The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the water used. For the quantity of detergent, refer always to what is written on the product packing. Use less detergent if: • you are washing a small load, • the laundry is lightly soiled, • large amounts of foam form during washing. Degrees of water hardness Water hardness is classified in so-called "degrees" of hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority. If the water hardness degree is medium or high we suggest you to add a water softener following always the manufacturer's instructions. When the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the quantity of the detergent. Open the detergent dispenser drawer Compartment for powder or liquid detergent used for main wash.
