4.2 Preparation
4.2.1 Sorting the laundry
• Sort laundry according to type of fabric,
color, and degree of soiling and allowable
water temperature.
• Always obey the instructions given on the
garment tags.
4.2.2 Preparing laundry for washing
• Laundry items with metal attachments such
as, underwired bras, belt buckles or metal
buttons will damage the machine. Remove
the metal pieces or wash the clothes by
putting them in a laundry bag or pillow case.
• Take out all substances in the pockets such as
coins, pens and paper clips, and turn pockets
inside out and brush. Such objects may
damage the product or cause noise problem.
• Put small size clothes such as infant's socks
and nylon stockings in a laundry bag or
pillow case.
• Place curtains in without compressing them.
Remove curtain attachment items.
• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and
mend rips and tears.
• Wash "machine washable" or "hand
washable" labeled products only with an
appropriate programme.
• Do not wash colours and whites together.
New, dark coloured cottons release a lot of
dye. Wash them separately.
• Tough stains must be treated properly before
washing. If unsure, check with a dry cleaner.
• Only use the dyes / color changers and
descaling agents which are appropriate
to machine wash. Always follow the
instructions on the package.
• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned
inside out.
• Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in
the freezer for a few hours before washing.
This will reduce pilling.
• Laundry that are subjected to materials such
as flour, lime dust, milk powder, etc. intensely
must be shaken off before placing into the
machine. Such dusts and powders on the
laundry may build up on the inner parts of
the machine in time and can cause damage.
