consumption. You can therefore reduce the amounts recommended by deter-

gent manufacturers.

partments if you have chosen a programme with prewash. Pour fabric softe-

ner into the compartment if necessary .

If you use another detergent type, refer to the section “detergents and addi-

tives” in the washing guide.

red wash programme, based on the kind
