Damp laundry produces moult and unpleasant smells. Resistant white and coloured synthetics can normally be washed at 60°C but also in this case 40°C is sufficient if the laundry is not excessively dirty. Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast colours and woollen garments must never be washed above 40°C. As you already know, your washing machine can also wash with cold water. Knitwear and woollens should be dried flat away from direct sunlight. Liquid additives Any liquid additives for softening the laundry must be poured into the compartment of the detergent dispenser drawer before starting the programme. The addition of water softener is particularly useful when drying the clothes in a tumble dryer after washing to avoid a static charge. Make sure that the level of the liquid never exceeds the MAX level. Detergents and additives Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the environment. Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which in large quantities can damage the delicate ecological balance of nature. Always use good quality detergents suitable for use in washing machines. Wipe with clean water and dry after cleaning. Important : do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products. It is advisable, from time to time, to carry out a complete cycle without a washing load, adding a decalcifying product. fig. 1 fig. 2 The detergent dispenser The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove.
