Safety of children
Packaging (e.g. wraps, polystyrene, etc.) can be dangerous for children. There is a risk of suffocation.
Keep packaging materials away from children. Remember to dispose of old appliances in accordance
with local laws. Pull out the mains plug, cut off the mains cable, break or remove spring or bolt catches
if fixed and ensure that children cannot lock themselves in the appliance when playing (there is risk of
suffocation) or involve themselves in other dangers. Children cannot recogonise the hazard present in
household appliances themselves, therefore it is very important for parents to make adequate
supervision and never let children play with appliances.

WASH GUIDE
Before you wash
Sorting
To get the best wash results it pays to sort your laundry before washing.
Read care labels as they will tell you how the fabric of each garments should be washed.
Sort clothes according to the type of and amount of soil. For example oily soils will require
a higher temperature to lift the stain, whereas mud and blood stains are better washed in
cold as heat can set the stain further into the fabric. Pretreating stains will also improve
upon wash results.
Always sort whites from coloured fabrics, and be sure to wash lint givers (such as towels)
separate to lint collectors (such as synthetics, socks and corduroy like fabric).
Loading
Before each wash be sure to check pockets and remove loose items that may cause
damage to both your washer and your clothes. Close all zippers, hooks and eyes to
prevent them catching on other garments.
Evenly distribute laundry around the bowl, and do not overload the clothes washer as this
will affect its performance.
CAUTION
Detergent
We recommend the use of a domestic top loader powder or liquid. The amount of
detergent to use will vary depending on the size of the load, the amount of soiling and the
type of laundry to be washed. For example, jeans and heavily soiled work clothes will
require more detergent, whereas towels will usually require less.
Follow the instructions on the back of the detergent to determine the correct dose for the
laundry to be washed. Too much detergent does not contribute to better wash results as
the rinse will not be as clean and efficient. This will unnecessarily add to environmental
pollution and a build up on the inside of your washer. Too little detergent may also cause
dirt and lint to settle back onto your clothes.
10
WASH GUIDE
Adding detergent
Add measured detergent to the detergent dispenser drawer. Detergent is flushed from the
dispenser drawer at the beginning of the wash phase.
Fabric softener may be added to the softener dispenser and will automatically be added
during the last rinse cycle. Do not add more than the recommended one time dose per
cycle and be sure to reduce the amount used for smaller wash loads.

It is not recommended that liquid detergents or fabric softeners are used when selecting a
long wash delay as they can congeal in the dispenser draws.
