TROUBLESHOOTING
POSSIBLE CAUSES
Wash cycle selected not suited to
soil level in load.
Warm wash water is too cold.
Not enough detergent for load
size or amount of soil.
White clothes are better
washed separately.
Cold water wash is too cold.
Select the wash temperature
according to soil type.
Overloading the washer.
Loads made up of articles of
varying sizes will wash better.
Hard water requires more
detergent than soft water.
Washing with too much water
(underloading) can cause
the clothes to tangle around
one another.
Items wrapped around the
agitator when loading.
Some items in load more likely to
release or pick up lint.
Overloading the washer.
Not enough detergent to hold
the lint in suspension.
Over-drying in a dryer can cause
a build-up of static electricity in
synthetic fabrics and cause them
to attract lint.
WHAT TO DO
Are you using the most appropriate wash
cycle for the amount of dirt?
Refer to 'Wash cycles'.
Refer to the detergent package for the
manufacturer's recommended dosage.
Separate light and heavily soiled items,
as clothes can pick up soil from dirty
wash water.
Refer to
CONTROLLED COLD
Blood and mud are better washed in cold
water, while oily soils are better washed in
warmer water.
Try reducing your load size.
A full load of sheets may not wash as well.
If you have hard water, try adding
more detergent.
Try selecting option using the soil
HEAVY
