Before You Wash

Sorting
To get the best wash results sort your clothes
before washing.
Color
Sort white fabrics from colored fabrics.
Care Labels
The care label will tell you about the fabric of
the garment and how it should be washed.
Soil
Sort clothes according to the type and amount
of soil. Some soils suit warmer washes eg oily
soils, while others are best washed in cold
water eg mud, blood.
Lint
Wash lint givers and lint collectors separately.
Where possible, turn lint collectors inside out.
Loading
Check Pockets
Loose items can damage both your autowasher and your clothes.
Close Zippers, Hooks and Eyes
This is to make sure that these items do not snag on other clothes.
Mend any Torn Garments or Loose Buttons
Tears or holes may become larger during washing. Remove any loose bra wires as they can
damage your washing machine and/or dryer.
Pretreat any Stains
Make sure the Water Level suits the Load Size
Ensure that the load does not extend above the fabric softener dispenser as splashing may occur.
For a Balanced Load:
A mixture of small and large items will wash the best.
Place unfolded clothes firmly and evenly around the agitator.
Do not wrap large items, such as sheets, around the agitator.
