Clothes must be loaded evenly
around the agitator. For best results
load small items first, followed by
large items.
When using the washing machine for
the first time, check that the dispenser
is set for the type of detergent you will
use. To do this, proceed as follows:
Pull the dispenser drawer forward
until it stops.
Detergent and fabric softener
use
Add the detergent
Clothes must not be wrapped a
round the agitator.
The washing machine must not be
overloaded. Clothes must be able to
move around during washing.
The load should contain only three or
four large items, for example, sheets.
The rest of the load should be small
items. A mixed load of large and
small items will wash cleaner than a
load of all large items.
Don’t use the wrong type of detergent.
You must use a low sudsing detergent
designed for washing machines.
Don’t use soap-based products in
your washing machine.
Measure the correct amount of
powder or liquid detergent by following
the recommendations on the package.
It is best to use detergent labelled low
sudsing. Good quality, front load
detergent will perform well in this
machine.
Don’t use too much detergent. This
will give you too many suds causing
low spin speeds, poor rinsing and
overloading the motor during spin
stages of the wash program.
Do not spill fabric softener on the
clothes as it may stain them.

runners.
Remember: If you change the
type of detergent you use, the
position of the flap will need
changing.
