T - Detergents, washing aids and amounts to use Choice of detergent General purpose detergents Powder detergents, for a thorough wash, with bleaching agent, particularly suitable for use in hot wash programmes (60°C and over), for heavily soiled and stained laundry. Liquid detergents, particularly suitable for grease stains, such as greasy skin marks, cosmetics and oil. These detergents are not suitable for washing stained laundry, as they do not contain bleach. Biological detergents, not all the products available give a really thorough wash. - If liquid detergents are used, please insert the special container supplied into the compartment marked "2" in the detergent drawer. This ensures that the liquid detergent enters the drum at the right stage of the wash cycle. This special container must be inserted into the compartment marked "2" in the detergent drawer, also when you wish to use the "RINSE" programme as BLEACHING cycle. Additional laundry aids Water softener, means less detergent can be used where water hardness is classed as hard to very hard. Prewash substances, for the programmed treatment of stains prior to the main wash. Using them means the subsequent wash can be at a low temperature or with bleach-free detergents.
