Note!
Due to environmental concerns, we discourage
the use of strong chemicals.
When using agents for bleaching or stain
removal, there is a risk of rust (corrosion) and
discoloration of the machine.
Liquid detergents
We don’t recommend liquid detergents because
they tend to produce more suds than powder
detergents when used in water temperatures 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.
Detergents
Laundry detergents are available in low-, normal-
and high-sudsing formulas. A detergent´s ability
to clean is not relative to the amount of suds it
produces. Excess suds in a front-loading washer
actually interfere with the cleaning because they
cushion the tumbling action. Also, high-sudsing
detergents are more difficult to completely rinse
out.
The use of anything other than a low-sudsing
detergent can cause severe oversudsing, which
could cause suds to backup through the detergent
compartment and run down the front of the washer
onto the floor. If oversudsing occurs, run the wash
through one or more rinse programs until all items
are thoroughly rinsed. Remove the laundry then
run the washer through a Normal wash program
to get rid of any remaining detergent.
We recommend that you don’t use bleach in your
ASKO washer. The tumbling wash action,
temperature control options, extended wash times
and proper amount of detergent are sufficient to
remove most stains.
Recommended powder detergents
ASKO washers use 50% to 75% less detergent
than most other washers. This is because of their
low water consumption and the fact that all the
wash water is repeatedly circulated through the
laundry, ensuring that all the detergent is fully
utilized. We recommend that you use powder
detergents made specifically for front-loading
washers. These are sometimes called HE
(High-Efficiency) detergents. Please visit our
homepage www.askousa.com to see the powder
detergents we recommend for ASKO washers.
We recommend that you do not use any powder
detergent that doesn’t wash completely out of the
detergent drawer.
Detergent Amounts Based on Water
Hardness
The amount of detergent needed can vary due to
differences in water hardness. To determine the
water hardness in your area, contact your local
water utility or area water softening company. The
harder the water, the more detergent you may
need. Refer to the chart below for the
recommended detergent amounts based on water
hardness. Remember, you should adjust the
amount of detergent you use by small amounts
until you find the correct amount.
Note that 12 grains and higher is extremely hard
water and detergent alone may not be enough.
You may need to use a water softener to maximize
the performance of your washer. Also, in areas
with extremely hard water (9+) you may need to
wash at lower temperatures to prevent hard water
deposits from forming in the tank and wash
system.
