Operating Instructions
PREPARATION BEFORE WASHING CLOTHES
Please follow these steps carefully to avoid trouble with your washing machine and damaging your
clothing.
Washing Considerations
→ New clothes in particular, can leach colour onto other clothing items, particularly whites.
Consider washing these and bright colours separately.
→ Stained clothing should be treated with a stain remover, prior to washing.
→ Temperature sensitive clothes should be washed in accordance with their care direction
label. Otherwise distortion and/or changes in colour could occur.
→ Never allow washing to sit in the machine for a long period of time- particularly when
wet. Clothes can become mouldy and develop an odour.
→ Certain clothing can not be washed in a washing machine and their care directions may
state dry cleaning or hand washing required.
→ Wrinkle style clothes, embossed clothes, resin clothes, etc may become distorted when
immersed in water.
→ Avoid washing clothes without care direction labels within the appliance, to be safe.
→ Always remove all items from clothing pockets, as hard items can cause damage to the
appliance.
→ Try to wash clothing colours and sizes in like loads, as this will improve the effectiveness
of the washing and results.
→ Close all clothing zips and ensure all buttons are fastened securely.
→ Delicate items such as bras, handkerchiefs and ties should be washed within a special
washing bag, to prevent damage to themselves and other clothes.
→ When washing a large single item that could become heavy (i.e. a towel or jacket),
it can cause the appliance to become unbalance during it’s spin cycle. Therefore it’s
recommended to add one or tow more clothing items to help the machine balance.
→ Try to remove any pet hair, dust and stains from clothing prior to washing.
→ Baby clothing should be washed separately.
→ Clothing that gets easily “fuzzed” or loses fibres easily, should be washed separately.
→ Black clothing items should be washed separately.
→ Do not wash waterproof materials within the washing machine.
Pay Attention to Detergents
→ Only use suitable front load washing machine detergents with this appliance. Powders
and liquid detergents only.
→ Only ever use the recommended quantity of detergent, as per the manufacturer’s
guidelines, as an excessive quantity can cause excessive bubbles and overflow to occur.
It can also result in detergent residue remaining on the clothing after completion of the
wash cycle.
Warning! Always keep detergents and additives out of reach from children.
