CHECK LIST & LAUNDRY PREPARATION
Follow these procedures to prevent errors of the machine or damage to garments.
- If a service is requested due to the following cases caused by customerÕs fault, a separate fee
will be charged.
Check List Before Washing
Check the garments, which have never been washed before, to see if they may
become discolored.
• Soak a white towel with detergent and rub this strongly on the less noticeable area
of the garments in question to see if the white color of the towel changes.
• Pay extra attention to scarves or an imported fabric, as some of these are apt to be
discolored.
• Check for any partial dirt or stains.
• To remove the stain, smear the garments with detergent and place it on a towel on
a floor and brush the stain to a consistent direction.
• Stain the dirt around the collar, wrist, bottom, and pocket of the garments with
detergent and then pat it with a brush before washing.
• When washing a wrinkle-process wool garment, use string to prevent deformation
and then remove the string after washing and drying is finished.
Not Washable Laundry
Clothes which are easily deformable even by soaking in water
• Garments like neckties, brassieres, jackets, suits and coats (made of those
materials, which can cause excessive shrinking, discoloring or deformation such as
rayon, polynosic, cuff and their blend fabrics) are easily deformed even by soaking
in water.
• Wrinkle-processed, embossed, or resin processed products are easily deformed
even by soaking in water.
• Products made of cotton, wool, pleated silk, leather products and accessories,
leather ornamented clothes are apt to be easily discolored.
• Do not boil running shoes in a washing machine. (The connected part may be
disconnected.)
• Do not use the washing machine to wash a garment that does not have the
treatment instructions and specification.
About Detergent
• If detergent is not dissolving well, use warm water.
Caution
• Use only the necessary amount of detergent.
• An excessive amount of detergent does not increase the effectiveness of the
washing process. It can damage the garments by reducing the rinse effect.
• A bleaching agent may cause damage to garments, as it is highly alkaline.
• When using powdered detergent, rinse the clothes thoroughly as it may remain on
the clothes and cause bad odors.
• If you use an excessive amount of detergent or if the water temperature is too low,
detergent may not be completely dissolved and remain on the clothes, hoses or
the spin basket, contaminating the clothes.
PREPARATION BEFORE WASHING
Follow the procedures below to prevent errors of the machine or damage to garments.
- If a service is requested due to the following cases caused by customerÕs fault, a separate
service fee will be charged.
Remove personal belongings from all the pockets.
• Check the pockets for hairpins or coins as they may damage the
clothes and machine, causing errors and strange sounds.
The open zippers of pants may damage the spin basket. Tie any strings, close
any zippers and then turn the pants inside out before washing.
• Close all the zippers and hooks of garments like jeans and working
uniforms before washing.
• Wash winter jumpers, working uniforms, bed sheets and jeans
separately.
• Fold clothes well into the spin basket. Remove hooks from curtains before
washing.
• Turn inside out any button decorated or embroidered clothes before washing.
• Be careful with those metallic decorations as they may cause damage
to clothes.
• Tie long strings properly as they may get tangled with clothes,
causing damage.
• The metal wires of brassieres may stick out and cause damage to other garments
or the spin basket. Use a laundry net before washing. (Use a dense laundry net.)
Waterproof clothes (skiwear, diaper covers, foot mats, etc.) are
not allowed in the washing machine.
• Do not wash, rinse or put any waterproof sheets, clothes, non-
water permeable fabrics or food. These items may pop out or cause severe
vibration, resulting in injuries and damage to the machine, the wall, the floor or the
clothes. (Diaper covers, sportswear, raincoats, umbrella covers, skiwear, car
covers, sleeping bags, food, etc.)
Caution when spin-drying
• Regular garments
The water coming out from garments is drained out through the spin basket holes.
• Waterproof clothes, fabrics and food
Even if the spin basket spins, water cannot drain out from the waterproof clothes
and fabrics. Thus the basket cannot spin evenly, causing severe vibration.
Waterproof clothes and fabrics or food may also pop up with
heavy vibration.
Remove dirt or soil from clothes.
• Soil and sand may damage garments, resulting in unsatisfactory
washing.
To protect baby's skin
• Wash diapers and baby garments (baby clothes and towels) separately. They may
become dirty if washed with adult's clothes.
