Sorting laundry.
• To get the best results, sort clothes into loads
that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
• Different fabrics need to be washed at varying
temperatures and spin speeds.
• Wash two or more towels or knits together.
If washed separately, laundry which absorbs
a lot of water may not be washed well or
abnormal spin-drying may occur due to
leaning.
• Always sort dark colours from pale colours
and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint
transfer can occur causing discolouration of
white and pale garments. If possible, do not
wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled
ones.
− Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) :
Separate clothes according to amount of
soil.
− Colour (White, Lights, Darks):
Separate white fabrics from coloured
fabrics.
− Lint (Lint producers, Collectors):
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.

Caring before loading.
• Do not wash 'memory wire' on female inner
wear (such as a brassiere) as it may damage
other clothes or the washing machine and
create noise.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they
are empty. Items such as nails, hair clips,
matches, pens, coins and keys can damage
both your washing machine and your clothes.
• Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure
that these items don't snag on other clothes.
• Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small
amount of detergent dissolved water onto
stains to help lift dirt.
• If an item of clothing has a long lace attached
to it, arrange the lace so it cannot be tangled
or put it into a washing net.
• Remove the insides of cushions, pillows,
or sitting mats and only wash the cover.
The insides may protrude, damaging other
laundry. Plastic parts may generate abnormal
vibrations.
CAUTION
• Divide laundry in large volume for washing so
that the laundry can be submerged under water
completely. If laundry expands during washing, it
may cause damage to the laundry and parts during
washing or spin.
