Washing bulky items
Forcing large items into the machine may result in
them being damaged during washing. Make sure
there is enough room in the machine for items to
move when being washed.
Some items float up during the wash (eg comforters,
water-proof and water-resistant items and pillows).
If they sit too high they may touch stationary parts
of the machine during agitate or spin. To minimize
the chance of this happening, ensure bulky items
are pushed back down into the water after fill, and
pushed down again to sit below the medium high
water level mark on the agitator before spinning.
Select a SLOW spin.
Important!
To prevent an out of balance load or splash-over we recommend washing all bulky items,
including water-proof and water-resistant items, on the DELICATE cycle.
If you wish to re-spin the load at a faster speed make sure the load is sitting below the
medium-high mark before spinning.
Washing woollens
Many woollen items carry a "Machine Washable" care
claim. The fibres of these woollens have been treated
to prevent felting when they are machine washed.
Check the care label.
■ ■
Use a wool detergent.
■ ■
Use the specially designed DELICATE cycle. For your more durable woollens you may want to use
■ ■
the EASY IRON cycle.
Hand washed woollens may be spun in your washer (select SLOW spin speed).
■ ■
To dry woollens lie them flat on a towel and pat into shape. Dry out of direct sunlight.
■ ■
Most handcrafted garments are not made of machine washable wool and we recommend that
you wash them by hand only.
Note: some wool underlays and sheepskin products can be washed in a washing machine but
could produce excessive amounts of lint that may cause pump blockages.
Fig.30 Bulky items should sit below the medium
high water level mark.
