Loading the laundry
d Risk of explosion!
Items of clothing that have been pretreated with
solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. stain remover
and dry cleaning spirit, represent an explosion hazard
once loaded into the washing machine. Therefore,
these items must first be rinsed thoroughly by hand.
Caution
Loose debris in the washing machine drum can
damage the laundry. Before loading the laundry,
check that there is no debris in the drum.
q Open the loading door.
q Unfold the sorted items of clothing and place them
loosely into the drum. Mix large and small items.
Laundry items which vary in size are more evenly
distributed during the spin cycle.
i Do not exceed recommended load.
Overloading will cause poor wash results and
encourage creasing.
q Close the loading door.
Take care not to trap any items of clothing
between the loading door and rubber seal.
