5.2 Putting Laundry in the Machine

•  Open the door of your machine. 
•  Spread your laundry evenly in the 

machine. 

NOTE: 

Take care not to exceed 

the maximum load of the drum as this will 

give poor wash results and cause creasing. 

Refer to the washing programme tables for 

information on load capacities.
