W arnings
To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be observed:
•Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources Such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent-this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. Washed in hot water with extra detergent-this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. The ‘cool down’ cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot.
•Items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with petrol/gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot removers (some brands), turpentine, waxes and was removers.
•Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly testured rubber. like materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on a heat setting.
Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
•Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
•Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose during drying. When available a drying rack could be used for such items.
•Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies waterproof napkin covers should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
•Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

11
C are before washing
Before the first washing
Select a cycle (COTTON 60°C, add a half load of detergent) allow the unit to wash without clothing.
This will remove residues from the drum that may have been left during manufacturing.
Caring before washing
1.Care Labels
Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.
2.Sorting
To get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways. Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled one.
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) |
Separate clothes according to amount of soil. |
Color (White, Lights, Darks) |
Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. |
Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) |
Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately. |
3. Caring before loading |
|
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load.
Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clip, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washer 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 little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help shift dirt.
• Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray) and remove any small articles,if any.
• Check inside of the drum and remove any left items in it for next wash cycle.
• Remove any clothing or items on the flexible gasket to prevent clothing and the gasket damages.

•Softener will automatically be added during the last rinse cycle.
•Do not open the drawer when water is supplied.
•Solvents(benzene, etc) are not allowable.
NOTE Do not pour fabric softener directly on the cloths
13
A dding detergent
3. Detergent dosage
•The detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacture.
•If too much detergent is used, too many suds can occur and this will decrease the washing result or cause heavy load to the motor.
•Use powder detergent only for the front loading washer.
If suds occur too much, pleas 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.
4. Water softener
•A water softener, such as Anti limescale (Clagon) can be used to cut down on the use of detergent in extremely hard water areas. Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging.
First add detergent and then the water softener.
•Use the quantity of detergent as for soft water.
Tips
Full load : according to manufacturer’s recommendation. Part load : 3/4 of the normal amount.
Minimum load : 1/2 of full load.
•Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle.
5. Using the Tablets
