Detergents and Additives

Only use detergents and additives designed for use in a
washing machine. We do not recommend mixing different
types of detergents. This may spoil the washing. There are
no restrictions on the use of powder detergents. Liquid
detergents must not be used when a prewash has been se-
• the water inlet filters are dirty (see "Care and cleaning "),
• the power or water supply has been cut off,
• the motor overheating detector has been activated,
• the water inlet temperature is lower than usual,
• the foam detection security system has been activated (too much detergent) and the
washing machine has begun draining the foam,
• the out of balance detector has been activated: an extra phase has been added to
distribute washing more evenly in the drum.
• the water or electricity supply is defective,
• a "Rinse hold" has been selected,
• the drum shutters are open.
• the temperature inside the drum is too high,
• the lid unlocks 1 - 2 minutes after the end of the cycle.
• you have gone past the MAX indicator.

Causes
lected. For cycles without prewash, pour the liquid deter-

(supplied by the detergent's manufacturer). Detergent tab-
lets or doses must be placed in the detergent compart-
ment of your appliance's dispenser box.
