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 on
different cycles and spin speeds.
• 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.
• The Mini Washer is not designed to wash
normal or heavily soiled items and should
be used to wash lightly soiled and special
care items only. The maximum load must
not exceed 3.5kg.
− Colour (White, Lights, Darks):
Separate white fabrics from coloured
fabrics.
− Lint (Lint producers, Collectors):
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.
• Wash lightly soiled and special care load in
Mini Washer.

Caring before loading.
• Do not wash items that contain support
or memory wire such as Bras as it may
damage other clothes as well as the
washing machine and cause noise and
vibration.
• 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.
