USE

Follow the instructions in this section for 
best washing results.

Sort Your Washing Into 

Separate Wash Loads

Empty all pockets. Close all hooks and 
zippers to avoid snagging clothes.
Wash bras, pantyhose and other 
delicates in a mesh laundry bag, which 
you can purchase from your 
supermarket. 

If you use pre-treatment sprays or stain 
removers, apply them to the clothing 
well away from your washing machine.

When loading the clothes into your 
washing machine, there are four things 
to remember: 

Check your clothes to avoid 

damage

Pre-treatment sprays and 

stain removers 

Load the washing machine

Each load of washing should contain 
clothing which needs the same washing 
conditions. For example, you should not 
wash delicate clothes with very dirty 
work clothes. 
Colour fast and non-colourfast fabrics 
should be separated. Knowing the type 
of fabrics you have and how dirty they 
are will help when you make selections 
from the wash program options. 

Some fabrics are lint collectors and can 
pick up lint, dirt and colour from other 
fabrics which are lint producers. Some 
examples are listed below:    

Lint collectors

Lint producers

Corduroy
Synthetics
Permanent press 
fabrics

Towels
Nappies
Chenille/
Candlewick

Make sure that you wash lint 

collectors separately from lint 

producers. 

Pre-treatment sprays and stain 

remover can damage plastic 

components on your washing 

machine.
