Abstract

A laundry washing machine has a treating agents dispenser (20) provided with one or more compartments (23 a). One of the compartment is suited to receive a unit dose package (DP) comprising a pre-measured amount of treating agent (D) incorporated into a water-soluble pouch (P). The treating agents dispenser (20) comprises a water conveying line having at least one nozzle (41, 42, 43) for generating at least one water jet (51, 52, 53) which hits and breaks the unit dose package (DP) inside the compartment (23a).
