When washing heavily soiled whites,
we recommend using cotton programs of
60°C or above and a normal washing
powder (heavy
bleaching agents that at medium/high
temperatures provide excellent results.
For washes between 40°C and 60°C
the type of detergent used needs to be
appropriate for the type of fabric and
level of soiling. Normal powders are
suitable for "white" or colour fast fabrics
with high soiling, while liquid detergents
or "colour protecting"
suitable for coloured fabrics with light
levels of soiling.
For washing at temperatures below
40°C we recommend the use of liquid
detergents or detergents
labeled as suitable for low temperature
washing.
For washing wool or silk, only use
detergents specifically formulated for
these fabrics.
Too much detergent leads to excessive
foam, which prevents the cycle being
carried out correctly. It could also affect
the quality of the washing and rinsing.

- cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is
tied to the suspended zeolites which do
not have negative
efficiency.
- white powder (zeolites) on laundry at
the end of the wash: this is normal, the
powder is not absorbed by fabric and does
not change its colour.
To remove the zeolites, select a rinse
programme. In the future consider using
slightly less detergent.
- foam in the water at last rinse: this does
not necessary
Consider using less detergent in future
washes.
- abundant foam: This is often due to the
anionic surfactants found in the detergents
which are hard to eliminate from laundry.
In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate
these effects: it will not help at all.
We suggest conducting a maintenance
