Before the first washing
Select a cycle (COTTON 60°C, add a half load of detergent) allow the unit to wash
without clothing.
This will remove residues from the drum that may have been left during manufacturing.
Caring before washing
1. Care Labels
Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment
and how it should be washed.
2. Sorting
To get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle.
Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways.
Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur
causing discoloration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled one.
Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light)
Color (White, Lights, Darks)
Lint (Lint producers, Collectors)
3. Caring before loading
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more
than half the total wash load.
Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.
Separate clothes according to amount of soil.
Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics.
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are
empty. Items such as nails, hair clip, matches,
pens, coins and keys can damage both your
washer and your clothes.
• Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure
that these items don't snag on other clothes.
• Do not be stuck between the door and the
glass.
• Pre treat dirt and stains by brushing a little
detergent dissolved in water onto stains like
collars and cuffs to help shift dirt.
• If you wash underwear, use the wash cloth
bag. If you don't use the wash cloth bag while
washing the underwear, wires in the bra may
make a noise.
