satisfactory

• Too little detergent is being used.
• The right detergent was not used.
• Special soiling was not pre-treated.
• Programme or temperature was not correctly set.
There are grey stains on the washing.
• Washing soiled with ointment, grease or oil was
washed with too little detergent.
• It was washed at too low a temperature.
• A common cause is that fabric conditioner – espe-
cially a concentrate – has got onto the washing.
Such stains should be washed out as quickly as
possible and make sure that you are careful when
using fabric conditioner.
After the last rinse foam can still be seen.
• Modern detergents may create foam even in the
last rinse cycle. The washing is however sufficient-
ly rinsed.
There are white residues on the washing.
• This is due to the insoluble ingredients in modern
detergents.
They are not caused by insufficient rinsing.
Shake or brush the washing. If possible turn the
washing inside out before washing. Check your
choice of detergent. Especially with dark colours it
is advisable to use liquid detergents.
