Preparing laundry for washing
•
Laundry items with metal attachments such
as, under-wired bras, belt buckles or metal
buttons will damage the machine. Remove the
metal pieces or wash the clothes by putting
them in a laundry bag or pillow case.
•
Take out all substances in the pockets such
as coins, pens and paper clips, and turn
pockets inside out and brush. Such objects
may damage the product or cause noise
problems.
•
Put small size clothes such as infant’s socks
and nylon stockings in a laundry bag or pillow
case.
•
Place curtains in without compressing them.
Remove curtain hooks etc.
•
Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend
rips and tears.
•
Wash “machine washable” or “hand
washable” labelled products only with an
appropriate programme.
•
Do not wash colours and whites together. New,
dark coloured cottons release a lot of dye.
Wash them separately.
•
Tough stains must be treated properly before
washing. If unsure, check with a dry cleaner.
•
Use only dyes/colour changers and lime scale
removers suitable for machine wash. Always
follow the instructions on the package.
•
Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned
inside out.
•
Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in
the freezer for a few hours before washing.
This will reduce piling.
•
Laundry that are subjected to materials such
as
fl
our, lime dust, milk powder, etc. Intensely
must be shaken off before placing into the
machine. Such dusts and powders on the
laundry may build up on the inner parts of the
machine in time and can cause damage.
Correct load capacity
The maximum load capacity depends on the type
of laundry, the degree of soiling and the washing
programme desired.
•
The machine automatically adjusts the
amount of water according to the weight of the
loaded laundry.
Follow the information in the “Programme and
consumption table”. When overloaded, machine’s
washing performance will drop. Moreover, noise and
vibration problems may occur.
