Washcare Tips

Do not overload or underload the machine (see
your Programme Guide for maximum load), in
addition to reducing the quality of the wash this
may also damage your laundry and the machine,
whilst causing the machine to become unstable
and noisy.
We strongly recommend that you do not wash
underwired bras in this machine. Should the wires
become detached it could cause damage to your
laundry and the machine. If the washcare label
states that the bra is machine washable, then we
advise placing it in a sealed pillow case or a
similar washbag.
! Remember you will be charged for a service
engineers visit resulting from a detached bra wire.
Do not use the machine if the item to be washed
does not have a wash label.
Before washing laundry we recommend you:
Pre-treat awkward stains with washable treatments.
Do not wash any items that have previously been
treated with solvents.
Close zips, fasten belts, tie strings and close
press studs to prevent tangling.
Empty all objects from pockets as they may
damage the laundry and the machine.
! Remember you will be charged for a service
engineers visit to rectify malfunction resulting from
objects such as coins, pens, hair grips etc. falling
from pockets.
Limit the size of absorbent loads ie. towels, to half
loads to give good washing and rinsing results.
Place small items in a wash bag.
Always follow the care label on items when
choosing the wash programme.
Wash non-colourfast items or really dirty items
separately as they may affect other laundry.
