The detergent drawer is composed of three compartments:

• (1) for prewash
• (2) for main wash
• (3) for softener
• (in addition, there is a siphon piece in the softener compartment.

Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents

• Add detergent and softener before starting the washing programme.
• While the washing cycle is in progress, do not leave the detergent drawer open!
• When using a programme without prewash, do not put any detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment no. "1").
• In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment no. "1").
• Do not select a programme with prewash if you are using a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the detergent bag or the dispensing ball directly among the laundry in the product.
• If you are using liquid detergent, do not forget to place the liquid detergent container into the main wash compartment (compartment no. "2").

Choosing the detergent type

Detergent type to be used depends on the fabric type and color.

• Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry.
• Wash your delicate clothes only with special detergents (liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) intended solely for delicate clothes.
• When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, it is recommended to use liquid detergent.
• Wash woolens with special detergent made specifically for woolens.

WARNING: Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines.

WARNING: Do not use soap powder.

Adjusting detergent amount

The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness.

• Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities recommended on the detergent package to avoid problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally, environmental protection.
• Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes.

Using softeners

Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent drawer.

• Do not exceed the (>max<) level sign on the softener compartment.
• If the softener has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before adding it in the detergent compartment.

WARNING: Do not use liquid detergents or other cleaning products other than fabric softeners produced for washing machines to soften the clothes.

Using liquid detergents

If the product contains a liquid detergent cup:

• Put the liquid detergent container into the compartment no "2".
• If the liquid detergent lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting it into the detergent container.

If the product is equipped with a liquid detergent part:

- When you want to use liquid detergent, pull the apparatus towards yourself. The part that falls down will serve as a barrier for the liquid detergent. If required, clean the apparatus with water when it is in place or by removing it. If you will use powder detergent, the apparatus must be secured at top position.

If the product does not contain a liquid detergent cup:

- Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a programme with prewash. - Liquid detergent stains your clothes when used with "End Time" function to start delayed. If you are going to use the End Time function, do not use liquid detergent.

Using gel and tablet detergent

• If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and your product does not contain a special liquid detergent container, put the gel detergent into the main wash detergent compartment during first water intake. If your product contains a liquid detergent container, fill the detergent into this container before starting the programme.
• If the gel detergent thickness is not fluidal or in the shape of capsule liquid tablet, put it directly into the drum before washing.
• Put tablet detergents into the main wash compartment (compartment no. "2") or directly into the drum before washing.

Using starch

• Add liquid starch, powder starch or the dyestuff into the softener compartment.
• Do not use softener and starch together in a washing cycle.
• Wipe the inside of the product with a damp and clean cloth after using starch.

Using limescale remover

- When required, use limescale removers manufactured specifically for washing machines only.

Using bleaches

• Select a programme with prewash and add the bleach at the beginning of the prewash. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment. As an alternative application, select a programme with extra rinse and add the bleach while the product is taking water from the detergent compartment during first rinsing step.
• Do not use bleach and detergent by mixing them.
• Use just a little amount (approx. 50 ml) of bleach and rinse the clothes very well as it causes skin irritation.
• Do not pour the bleach onto the laundry.
• Do not use it with colored items.
• When using an oxygen-based bleach, select a program that washes the laundry at a low temperature.
• Oxygen-based bleach can be used together with the detergent. However, if its thickness is not the same as the detergent, put the detergent first into compartment no. "2" in the detergent drawer and wait until the detergent flows while the product is taking in water. While the product continues taking in water, add bleach in the same compartment.
