Preparing your Laundry
Separate Fabrics and Pre-treat
Ensure the best wash/dry results by preparing your laundry before you
wash. Read and follow guidelines on fabric labels. Separate laundry by
fabric type, color and fabric care instructions.
• Fasten all hooks, zippers and buttons to prevent snags and pulls.
• Tie strings, sashes, etc., and remove any non-washable trims, belts or
buckles.
• Empty pockets of garments.
• Pre-treat stained or heavily soiled items.
• Put any delicate items – bras, shoulder pads, tights, hosiery, and
underwear – in mesh laundry bag to prevent tangles.
• Mend any torn items to prevent further damage.
Pre-washing
For excessively soiled clothes with embedded dirt, such as work clothes
or children’s play clothes, use the pre-wash option and / or heavy stain
program. Add the appropriate amount of HE* powdered laundry detergent to
section #1 of the detergent dispenser.
Pre-treating
Use a pre-wash spray or stick, HE* liquid laundry detergent or HE*
powdered laundry detergent water/paste mixture on stains before washing.
See Stain Removal Chart, pg. 10, for specific stain treatments.
Choosing Laundry Aids
Laundry Detergent
The Eurotech washer/dryer gets fabrics clean with smaller amounts of
HE* laundry detergent. If you are used to a top-loading washer, use less
detergent for wash loads.

Getting Started
Amount: Use 1 – 2 Tablespoons of (HE*) powdered laundry detergent,
or the equivalent amount of high efficient (HE) liquid detergent. For Pre-
washing Cycle, use 1-2 teaspoons of detergent depending on soil level of
load. Low-suds detergents designed for front-loading machines, such as
Eurotech’s own ecoVantage™ Laundry Detergent, are recommended.
Adjust amounts for heavily or lightly soiled garments. Use more in hard
water; less in soft water. Pre-treated garments may require little to no
additional detergent.
ecoVantage™ Laundry Detergent
For best results with your Eurotech combination washer/
dryer, use ecoVantage HE (high efficiency), low-sudsing
laundry detergent. It’s the only laundry detergent that
has an oxygenated cleaning agent in a perfume & dye-
free (sensitive) formula. Order ecoVantage by calling
800-898-1879 or go online at www.eurotechappliances.com.
Liquid Fabric Softener
Using fabric softener in the dispenser section (#3) helps items release from
the drum after the spin cycle, helping clothes dry faster and wrinkle less.
Amount: Use 1-2 tablespoons per wash load of a bio-friendly brand. These
softeners dissolve quicker and minimize build-up in the machine.
Adjust amounts for heavily or lightly soiled garments. Use more in hard
water; less in soft water.
Note: Never exceed the recommended amount of liquid fabric
softener and do not use fabric softener sheets. Doing either
could cause damage to fabrics, your washer/dryer and impair
wash results.
Bleach
Using liquid chlorine bleach is not recommended with the Eurotech laundry
products washer/dryer. However, for difficult-to-remove stains, use only
non-chlorinated bleach (powder only). Mix approximately 1-2 teaspoons of
non-chlorinated powdered bleach with powdered HE* detergent in section #2
of the detergent compartment
* HE = high efficient, low sudsing laundry detergent.
