Sorting laundry.
•
To get the best results, sort clothes into
loads that can be washed with the same
wash cycle.
•
Different fabrics need to be washed at
varying temperatures and spin speeds.
•
Always sort dark colours from pale colours
and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint
transfer can occur causing discolouration
of white and pale garments. If possible, do
not wash heavily soiled items with lightly
soiled ones.
−
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) :
Separate clothes according to amount of
soil.
−
Colour (White, Lights, Darks):
Separate white fabrics from coloured
fabrics.
−
Lint (Lint producers, Collectors):
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.

Caring before loading.
•
Combine large and small items in a load.
Load large items first.
•
Large items should not be more than half
the total wash load. Do not wash single
items. This may cause an unbalanced load.
Add one or two similar items.
•
Check all pockets to make sure that they
are empty. Items such as nails, hair clips,
matches, pens, coins and keys can damage
both your washing machine and your
clothes.
•
Close zippers, hooks and strings to make
sure that these items don’t snag on other
clothes.
•
Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small
amount of detergent dissolved water onto
stains to help lift dirt.
•
Check the folds of the flexible gasket (gray)
and remove any small articles.
CAUTION
•
Check inside the drum and remove any items
from a previous wash.
•
Remove any clothing or items from the flexible
gasket to prevent clothing and gasket damage.
