Checking washing capacity:
Do not load too much laundry as this may negatively aff ect the result or the wash. Using the following table,
identify the maximum amount of laundry that can be loaded into the washing machine.
Fabric type
Maximum laundry load
8 kg
10 kg
Cotton
8 kg
10 kg
Synthetics
4 kg
5 kg
Wool
2.0 kg
2.0 kg
NOTE:
Nominal capacity is maximum capacity. Make sure that the laundry loaded for drying does not exceed
the nominal capacity.
Clothing that easily loses fi bres needs to be turned inside out
Clothing that easily loses fi bres needs to be washed separately, otherwise other laundry may easily be "soiled"
with fi bres. It is, therefore, recommended to wash, especially black laundry and cotton laundry separately because
the loosened fi bres could easily stick to the laundry. Check the laundry before loading it in the washing machine.
Do not wash waterproof materials (ski clothing, outdoor clothing, drapes, etc.) in the washing machine.
Such laundry is made from a material that is not easy to soak in water and, therefore, it is better not to wash
waterproof clothing in a washing machine. Otherwise, the washing machine could overfl ow or abnormal vibrations
could result causing damage during draining and spinning. (Such as outdoor pillows, raincoats, umbrellas, ski
clothing, car tarpaulins, sleeping bags, etc.)
Warning during draining
Draining with standard clothing:
The moisture from the laundry is drained through the drain holes in the drum.
Draining water from durable clothing and infl ammable fi brous products:
When washing waterproof clothing or fi brous clothing, it is not possible to drain the water from it because water
is pulled in a single direction by the high eccentric force created by the washing machine and may thereby result
in excessive vibrations and undesirable movement.
Eff ective drying of laundry
Dry only laundry that was properly spun dry in the washing machine.
Check that you did not press the spin button during the spin cycle to ensure that the laundry has been spun
dry properly.
With synthetic fabrics it is essential that they are properly spun dry before drying.
To ensure the correct drying result, it is necessary to sort the laundry according to type and drying temperature.
It is better to remove synthetic fabrics and sort them to prevent their damage and so that you can set the correct
drying time based on the size of the load.
If you wish to iron the laundry after drying it, remove it for a while to allow the moisture to dissipate.
Fabrics unsuitable for drying
Especially delicate fabrics such as curtains, woollen and silk pieces of laundry, laundry with metal stiff eners, nylon
laundry, bulky laundry (windcheaters, bedspreads, kilts, sleeping bags, blankets, etc.) are not suitable for drying.
Laundry coated with a rubber layer or similar material must not be dried; this is a fi re hazard.
Likewise, fabrics containing residues of creams or hair spray, varnish remover or similar substances must not be
dried to prevent dangerous gases from forming.
