Soil
Very dirty, sandy or linty loads are best washed separately to prevent transfer onto other
garments. It may be that you have new towels that create lots of lint, or very sandy beach gear.
We suggest using High Efficiency OFF in these circumstances or selecting the fabric softener
rinse as this will give an extra deep rinse (ie ensure the SOFTENER option is selected).
Note: there is no need to add fabric softener to the dispenser in this instance.
Very dirty loads should be washed separately. The HEAVY soil level option (where available) can
be selected to provide some extra agitation (refer to page 34).
Delicates
To take extra special care of delicate items, we suggest using the DELICATE cycle.
Sorting
To get the best wash results it pays to sort your clothes before washing.
Care labels provide valuable information about the fabric type and how the garment should
■ ■
be washed.
Sort items according to what they are soiled with – some soils, like mud and blood are best
■ ■
washed in cold water. Oily soils (eg some foods and marks on shirt collars) are best washed in
warm water.
Always separate colored items from whites, especially when they are new.
■ ■
We recommend that you wash towels on the TOWELS cycle if available. If your machine does not
■ ■
have a TOWELS cycle, use the SHEETS cycle.
Some items are lint givers (eg towels, nappies), while others are lint collectors (eg black trousers,
■ ■
synthetic socks). Always wash lint givers and collectors separately. Where possible, turn lint
collectors inside out.
