Dyeing fabrics
If you want to dye fabrics in the machine, se-
lect the Normal program with the Super Rinse
option On. Select temperature according to
the dye manufacturer’s recommendations.
Choose a low spin speed if the fabric to be
dyed is a blended material such as
polyester/cotton.
Note!
Add the dye directly to the washing drum –
not to the detergent compartment. After dye-
ing, you should run the machine empty using
the same program. Use the normal amount
of detergent.
Note!
Due to environmental concerns, we discour-
age the use of strong chemicals.
When using agents for bleaching or stain re-
moval, there is a risk of rust (corrosion) and
discoloration of the machine.
Liquid detergents
We don’t recommend liquid detergents be-
cause they tend to produce more suds than
powder detergents when used in water tem-
peratures of 150° F or higher. If you should
try a liquid detergent, start with a very small
amount, such as 1 to 2 tablespoons. Also,
liquid detergent can be used for all programs
without prewash, so add it into the main wash
compartment.Should you prefer to use a liquid
detergent, we have provided a partition piece
with the detergent drawer specifically for use
with liquid detergents. Insert the partition in
the slot at the back of the main wash compart-
ment before you pour in the liquid detergent.
Note
The partition piece is packaged in the Docu-
ment set supplied with the machine
