G E N E R A L T I P S :
Curtains: Remove lead weights first or place in a laundry bag
Underwiring and collar stiffeners: Any loose wiring in bras, shirt collar stiffeners, etc. should be
removed or sewn in.
Close any zips, attach Velcro fasteners, fasten hooks and eyes etc. before washing.
Fasten duvet covers, pillow cases etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.
When washing rugs, bed covers or other heavy clothing, it is recommended to avoid the
spinning cycle.
Do not wash any items in this washing machine which are specified by the manufacture as not
washable on the care label (
symbol).
H E L P F U L S U G G E S T I O N S :
MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE
Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum
load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.
DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?
For heavily soiled laundry only. Save detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy
consumption by not selecting Pre-wash for slight to normally soiled laundry.
IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?
Pre-treat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing to reduce
the necessity of a hot wash programme. Save energy by using a low temperature wash
programme.
When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C or above
and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/
high temperatures provide excellent results.
For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the
type of fabric and level of soiling.
Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid
detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels
of soiling.
