13BEFORE YOU WASH
Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
Liquid bleach:
1. Use half the recommended dose of bleach and
dilute with water.
2. Remove the fabric softener dispenser and pour
down the inside edge of the agitator stem, in line
with the fins.
3. Add detergent and replace the fabric softener
dispenser.
Powdered Bleach:
Pour half the recommended dose of powdered
bleach into the agitator with your detergent.
The fabric softener goes into the dispenser on the
top of the agitator.The ring on the dispenser cup is a
guide for the amount of fabric softener to add for a
full load. Smaller loads require less fabric softener.
Softener Rinse
If you wish to use fabric softener when using the
Regular or Heavy Duty cycles you must select the
SOFTENER RINSE option. This changes the
rinse option to include a deep rinse so the fabric
softener will be dispensed correctly.
Scrud is the name given to the waxy build-up that can
occur within any washer when fabric softener comes
into contact with detergent.This build-up is not
brought about by a fault in the machine. If scrud is
allowed to build-up in the machine it can result in stains
on your clothes or an unpleasant smell in your washer.
If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend:
- Using fabric softener sparingly.
- When filling the dispenser, do not splash or overfill.
-
Clean the dispenser as soon as the cycle is finished.
- Clean your machine regularly (refer page 18).
- Cold water washing increases the chance of the
build-up occurring.We recommend that a warm
permanent press wash be used at regular intervals,
eg every 5th wash should be warm.
- Fabric softener of a thinner consistency is less likely
to leave residue on the dispenser and contribute
to a build-up.
