Detergent dispenser drawer
Compartment for prewash. The prewash detergent is added at the beginning
of the wash programme.
Compartment for powder or liquid detergent used for main wash.
It is emptied at the beginning of the wash cycle.
Compartment for liquid additives (fabric softener, starch).
It is emptied at the last rinse.
The quantity of additives must not exceed the “MAX” mark in the
drawer.
Before the first wash
Before your first wash, we recommend that you run a cotton cycle at
60°C, without any laundry in the machine, to remove any manufac-
turing residue from the drum and tub.
Pour 1/2 a measure of detergent into the compartment of the dis-
penser drawer and start the machine.
