Preparation
Read the following to understand how best to prepare your laundry for washing.
Organising Laundry
• Read the washing label on each garment to help you sort your washing into different loads.
• Sort the laundry by colour, type of fabric and by how soiled it is. This will help you choose
the correct programme and temperature for each wash.
• Do not exceed the maximum load! See the programme selection table for the maximum
load for the programme you require.
Preparing Laundry
• Treat stains before washing.
• Some items should be put into a cleaning net before going into
the washing machine. i.e. bras with metal wires, tights and lace
clothing to prevent damage.
• Check that pockets do not contain any objects which may
damage your clothes and the washing machine.
• Tie up any loose strings on laundry, close zippers and reverse
clothing with zips inside out.
• To prevent any large, heavy objects (e.g., buckles, large buttons,
etc.) from hitting the glass door, turn your clothing inside out, or
remove the heavy objects. These could damage your laundry or
the washing machine.
• Remove any surplus hair, animal fur, sand, and other materials
with a brush before washing.
• If clothes have raised fabric turn them inside out.
• Clothes that are not colour fast should be washed separately.
• Insert your clothes into the washing machine. Close the washing
machine door. Ensure that you do not trap any items of clothing
between the loading door and the rubber seal.
Adding Detergent and Softener
• Add detergent into the appropriate dispenser.
• Apply softener before you start washing.
• Apply detergent and softener according to the washing
amount, the soiling level, the water hardness in your area
and the manufacturer’s instructions of these products.
• For slightly dirty clothes, do not pre-wash and put a small
amount of detergent in compartment 2 (II) of the detergent
drawer.
