Washing Hints
Do NOT overload the machine. Weigh the laundry the
first few times you use the appliance.
The average weights of the most common items are
listed below as a guide:
1000g = 1 kg

Apron
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with
●
small ones.
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric,
●
colour-fastness and how dirty it is.
Avoid washing unhemmed or torn items as they may
●
unravel.
Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects
●
which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws
etc). as these could damage the drain pump.
When washing curtains, remove the hooks.
●
Close poppers and zips and fasten loose buttons.

It is essential to wash new coloured items separately
●
when washing for the first time.
When washing fabrics requiring different wash
●
temperatures together, always select the lowest
temperature.
White items should not be washed with coloured
●
items.
Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc)
●
should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case.
Use a good quality detergent suitable for automatic
●
washing machines.
Use the correct quantities of detergent.
●
For wool, use gentle detergent only in small
●
quantities.
Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care
●
and kept out of reach of children.
Some stains such as fruit, wine, grass, rust etc. are
●
difficult to remove and should be treated before
washing with specific products, which can be found
in most household shops. In some cases it may help
to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-
soak product or biological detergent.
If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin
●
only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left
in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not
contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a
rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to
ensure that any dye is removed from the sump.
Once you have finished using the machine, you are
●
advised to unplug it and turn off the water tap.
