WHAT TO DO
Select a wash cycle with options appropriate
to the load (refer to 'Wash cycle options',
page 26).
If using the 'Manual Dose' dispenser, ensure
the correct dose of detergent is used for the
load size and soil level. If using 'Auto Dose',
adjust the dose using 'Auto Detergent' (refer
to 'Customising wash cycle', page 28).
Ensure the washer is not overloaded in terms
of its capacity or the cycle selected (refer to
'Loading', page 22).
Select a higher soil level option if available.
Select 'Pre Wash' option, where available, for
particularly dirty loads (refer to 'Customising
wash cycle' and 'Pre Wash', page 28).
Wash heavily and lightly soiled garments
separately.
After washing particularly dirty clothing we
recommend putting the washer through a
'Rinse' cycle, once the load has been removed.
This will wash away any remnants of dirt that
could affect future wash performance.
Select a wash temperature suitable for
the type of soil, eg warm for greasy soils,
cold for muddy soils. Increasing the wash
temperature generally improves soil removal
and overall wash performance.
Ensure garments can be safely washed at the
increased temperature.
Remember to separate whites and colours.
Wash non-colourfast items separately
and select 'Cold' wash temperature.
Remove items from washer as soon as
the cycle is finished, or if items are not to be
removed from the washer immediately select
'Soil Level'.
Consider the wash temperature you
select for your coloured items. Lower the
temperature if you are concerned.
