•To get the best results, sort clothes into loads
that can be washed with the same wash cycle.

•Different fabrics need to be washed at varying
temperatures and spin speeds.

•Always sort dark colours from pale colours and
whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer
can occur causing discolouration of white and
pale garments. If possible, do not wash heavily
soiled items with lightly soiled ones.

– Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light)

Separate clothes according to amount of soil.

– Colour (White, Lights, Darks)

Separate white fabrics from coloured fabrics.

– Lint (Lint producers, Collectors)

Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.

Caring before loading.

3

•Combine large and small items in a load. Load

large items rst.

•Large items should not be more than half the
total wash load. Do not wash single items. This
may cause an unbalanced load. Add one or two
similar items.

•Check all pockets to make sure that they are
empty. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches,
pens, coins and keys can damage both your
washing machine and your clothes.

•Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure
that these items don’t snag on other clothes.

•Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small
amount of detergent dissolved water onto stains
to help lift dirt.

•Check the folds of the exible gasket (gray) and
remove any small articles.

•Check inside the drum and remove any items
from a previous wash.

•Remove any clothing or items from the exible
gasket to prevent clothing and gasket damage.

17

Adding Cleaning Products

Detergent Dosage

•Detergent should be used according to the instruction
of the detergent manufacturer and selected according
to type, colour, soiling of the fabric and washing
temperature.

•If too much detergent is used, too many suds can
occur and this will result in poor washing results or
cause heavy load to the motor.

•If you wish to use liquid detergent follow the guidelines
provided by the detergent manufacturer.

•You can pour liquid detergent directly into the
main detergent drawer if you are starting the cycle
immediately.

•Do not use liquid detergent if you are using Time
delay, or if you have selected Pre Wash, as the liquid
may harden.

•If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent amount.

•Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water
temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the
load. For best results, avoid oversudsing.

•Refer to the label of the clothes, before chooseing the
detergent and water temperature:

•When using the washing machine, use designated
detergent for each type of clothing only:

– General powdered detergents for all types of fabric

– Powdered detergents for delicate fabric

– Liquid detergents for all types of fabric or

designated detergents only for wool

•For better washing performance and whitening, use
detergent with the general powdered bleach.

•Detergent is ushed from the dispenser at the
beginning of the cycle.

NOTE

•Do not let the detergent harden.
Doing so may lead to blockages, poor rinse
performance or odour.

•Full load : According to manufacturer’s
recommendation.

•Part load : 3/4 of the normal amount

•Minimum load : 1/2 of full load
