••This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.

••Symbols on the care labels.

Wash temperature

Normal machine wash

Permanent press

Delicate

Hand wash

Do not wash

2 Sorting laundry.

••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.

••Wash two or more towels or knits together. If washed separately, laundry which absorbs a lot of water may not be washed well or abnormal spin-drying may occur due to leaning.

••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.

3 Caring before loading.

••Do not wash 'memory wire' on female inner wear (such as a brassiere) as it may damage other clothes or the washing machine and create noise.

••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.

••If an item of clothing has a long lace attached to it, arrange the lace so it cannot be tangled or put it into a washing net.

••Remove the insides of cushions, pillows, or sitting mats and only wash the cover. The insides may protrude, damaging other laundry. Plastic parts may generate abnormal vibrations.

CAUTION

••Divide laundry in large volume for washing so that the laundry can be submerged under water completely. If laundry expands during washing, it may cause damage to the laundry and parts during washing or spin.

Closing the Door and Drawer

1	Push the washing machine door until it
	clicks.

2 Push the drawer completely closed.

CAUTION

••Do not let your hands get stuck between the door and the washing machine, as this can cause injury.

••Forcing the drawer or the door to open can cause part damages and safety problems.

••Closing the drawer before having closed the door completely may scratch the door glass.

••Ensure the drawer is pulled out completely to prevent the door from contacting the front load washing machine.

NOTE

••Door lock may fail if there is too much laundry in the machine or if the door is not completely closed.

••If the product is operating or the drawer lock

, indicator is displayed, the door cannot open. To open the door, press the Start/ Pause button to stop the product, and when drawer lock , indicator disappears, open the door. Do not force the drawer and door open.

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.

••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 choosing 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.

Adding Detergent

Measure the detergent with the detergent dispenser and pour it into the tub.

••Use the provided detergent measuring cup to add only one cup of detergent.

••Reduce the amount of detergent for lightly soiled laundry. If you use too much detergent, excessive bubbles will remain after rinsing.
