LOADING
BEFORE YOU WASH
To get the best wash results it pays to sort your
clothes before washing.
•
CARE LABELS
The care label will tell you about the fabric of the
garment and how it should be washed.
•
SOIL
Sort clothes according to the type and amount of
soil. Some soils suit warmer washes eg oily soils,
while others are best washed in cold water eg
mud, blood.
•
COLOUR
Sort white fabrics from coloured fabrics.
•
LINT
Wash lint givers and lint collectors separately.
Where possible, turn lint collectors inside out.

BEFORE WASHING
•
CHECK POCKETS. Loose items can damage
both your Smart Drive and your clothes.
•
CLOSE ZIPPERS, HOOKS AND EYES. This is to
make sure that these items do not snag on other
clothes.
•
MEND ANY TORN GARMENTS OR LOOSE
BUTTONS. Tears or holes may become larger
during washing. Remove any loose bra wires as
they can damage your washing machine and/or
dryer.
•
PRETREAT ANY STAINS.
•
MAKE SURE THE WATER LEVEL SUITS THE LOAD
SIZE.
•
Select the correct water level by using the
mark on the agitator nearest to the top of the
load.
•
Ensure that the load does not extend above
the fabric softener dispenser as splashing may
occur.
•
FOR A BALANCED LOAD
•
Place unfolded clothes firmly and evenly
around the agitator.
•
Do not wrap large items, such as sheets,
around the agitator.
•
A mixture of small and large items will wash
the best.
