Sorting laundry.
2
• 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.
• 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.

EN
Closing the Door and Drawer
Push the washing machine door until it
1

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.
