Detergent dispensing
It is important to avoid adding too much detergent as
this causes excessive foam.
–
Do not use detergents which create a lot of foam.
–
Follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions for
use.
The right amount to dispense will depend on the
following:
–
The amount of laundry
–
The water hardness level
–
The soiling level of the laundry
The amount to dispense
Take the water hardness into account and follow the
detergent manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.

Check with your local water supplier if you do not
know the hardness level in your area.
Gas heated machines
On gas heated machines the suds solution is
pumped around the heater elements. This additional
agitation of the suds solution creates foam. It is
therefore important to use a low-foaming detergent
and not to use too much detergent.
If over-foaming occurs use a reduced foam detergent
or call in a detergent application specialist.
