4. Load the washing machine Open the door Close the door Take hold of the door and pull it open. Make sure that no items are caught between the door and the seal. Check the drum for pets or foreign objects before loading it with laundry. The most efficient use of energy and water is achieved when a full load is washed. However, do not overload as this reduces cleaning efficiency and causes creasing. Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum.
5. Add detergent There are several options for adding detergent. TwinDos The washing machine has the TwinDos system. TwinDos has to be activated as described in “Before using for the first time”. How UltraPhase 1 and UltraPhase 2 work UltraPhase 1 is a liquid detergent which dissolves dirt and removes the most common stains. UltraPhase 2 is a bleaching agent and removes stubborn stains. For the best washing result, these two agents are dispensed at separate times during the washing process.
5. Add detergent Level of soiling The level of soiling in laundry is split into three settings: – Light No visible soiling or stains – Normal Visibly soiled and/or just a few slight stains – Heavy Heavily soiled and/or stains clearly visible.
