use a liquid detergents.
Keep detergents and additives in a dry place and
out of reach of children.
Use only detergents and additives specifically
produced for domestic washing machines.

treated with solvents or flammable liquids.

instructions;
-

-
minimum load (about 1 kg): half the amount
used for a full load;

from your water company): soft water requires
less detergent than hard water.
