Function Information

Our machine provides various washing methods which suits various conditions and types of laundry.

Different types of laundry washing

FUZZY(Normal) Wash

	Use this Program for everyday washing e.g. sheets, towels, T-shirts.		(refer to page 16)
	Use this Program for heavily soiled durable garments e.g. overalls, jeans.		(refer to page 16)
	Thick and heavy clothes or those which are excessively dirty like jeans or working uniforms can be washed.
	DELICATE Wash
			(refer to page 16)
	Use this program to wash DELICATE and washable laundries.
	Delicate clothes (lingerie, wool, etc.) which may be easily damaged can be washed.		(refer to page 16)

The fibers of machine washable woolens have been specifically modified to prevent felting when they are machine washed.

Most handknitted garments are not made of machine washable wool and we recommend that you hand wash them

•Before washing your woolens check the care label for the washing instructions.

•When washing woolens use a mild Detergent recommended for washing wool.

•Hand washed woolens may be spun in a washing machine to reduce the time they take to dry.

•To dry woolens lay down them flat on a towel and pat into shape. Dry woolens out of direct sunlight.

(The heat and tumble action of a dryer may cause shrinkage or felting of woolen garments.)

Some wool underlays and sheepskin products can be washed in a washing machine but may cause pump blockages. (Ensure that the whole article is suitable for machine washing and not just the backing material.) You may wish to handwash these articles and place them in the machine to spin dry.

FAVORITE Wash

	This setting allows you to store your FAVORITE wash conditions in the normal cycle memory.		(refer to page 19)
	SILENT Wash
		(refer to page 20)
	Use this program to wash quietly at night.

Washing according to the condition of laundry

QUICK WASH

QUICK WASH can be selected to wash lightly soiled clothes of less than 2.0 kg in a short time.

(refer to page 16)

SOAK Wash

SOAK Wash can be selected to wash heavily soiled laundry by soaking in water for some time to remove dirt and grime. (refer to page 18)

Preparation Before Washing

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.

Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle, Water Temperature and spin speed.

Sorting

To get the best results, different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.

•	SOIL (Heavy, Normal, Light)	Separate clothes according to the type and amount of soil.
•	COLOR (Whites, Lights, Darks)	Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
•	LINT (Lint producers, Collectors) Separate lint producers and lint collectors.
Lint Producers		Terry cloth, Chenille, Towels, Nappies, Diapers
Lint Collectors		Synthetics, Corduroy, Permanent Press, Socks

Check before Loading

• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Things such as nails, hairclips, matches,

pens, coins, and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes.

• Mend any torn garments or loose buttons. Tears or holes may become larger during washing.

• Remove belts, underwires, etc. to prevent damage to the machine or your clothes.

• Pretreat any dirt and stains.

• Make sure the clothes are washable in water.

WIRE

• Check the washing instructions.

• Remove tissue in pockets.

CAUTION

Do not wash or spin any item labeled or known to be water-proof or water-resistant, even if the product care label on the item permits machine washing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe damage to

your laundry, your washer and/or property damage as a result of abnormal vibration of the washer.

Using Detergent

How much Detergent

When you select a wash program the WATER LEVEL and the amount of Detergent (to be used) will be shown on the control panel. The amount of a cup in the diagram is about 40g for concentrated Detergent. The correct amount of Detergent will vary depending on the amount of soil in your clothes (Jeans and work cloches may need more Detergent, while bath towels usually need less.).

For liquid and concentrated Detergents, follow the recommendations of the Detergent manufacturer.

Note: To check you are using the correct amount of Detergent, lift the lid of your machine about halfway through the wash. There should be a thin layer of foam over the surface of the water. Lots of

foam may look good, but it does not contribute to cleaning your clothes. No foam means not enough Detergent has been used; soil and lint can settle back on the clothes or the washing machine. If excess Detergent is used, the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. Also, it could cause environmental pollution, so use it accordingly.
