Concentrated detergent: 20g approx. per 30 L of water.
Regular synthetic detergent: 30g approx. per 30 L of water
When sensing water levels automatically, the amount of detergent can differ according to the amount of laundry even at the same water level.
For synthetic detergent, use one that generates less bubbles. This type of detergent is specially designed for washers.
In case of using liquid detergent, dissolve it with water (detergent : water = 1:1) and deposit it through the bleach deposit hole.
The correct amount of detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes. (Jeans and work clothes may need more detergent, while bath towels usually need less.)
For liquid and concentrated detergants, follow the recommendations of the detergent manufacturer.
Water Level | Amount of Water | Amount of Laundry |
|---|---|---|
8 | 62 L | Less than rated capacity of model |
7 | 59 L | Less than 5.0 kg |
6 | 51 L | Less than 3.0 kg |
5 | 48 L | Less than 2.5 kg |
4 | 42 L | Less than 2.0 kg |
3 | 39 L | Less than 1.5 kg |
2 | 34 L | Less than 1.0 kg |
1 | 29 L | Less than 0.6 kg |
To check you are using the correct amount of detergent, lift the lid of your machine about half-way through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water Lots of foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough Detergent has been used, soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine. If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be efficient. Also, it could cause environmental pollution, so use it accordingly.
