Good washing results also depend on the correct

dose of detergent: adding too much detergent

won't necessarily make for a more efficient wash,

and may in fact cause build up on the interior of

your appliance and even pollute the environment.

Open up the detergent

dispenser and pour in

the detergent and fabric

softener, as follows.

compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash

(powder)

Pre-wash detergent should only be used with the

sportswear programme

, while setting the timer

knob to the "auto" position or to one of the "3h" to

"24h" positions (see Detergents and laundry).

compartment 2: Detergent for the wash

cycle (powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in

immediately prior to the wash cycle start.
