Wash Cycles and Options
Washing Bulky Items
Make sure there is enough room in the machine for items to move when being washed. Forcing
large items into the machine may result in them being damaged during washing.
Some items float up during the wash (eg comforters
and pillows). If they sit too high they may touch
stationary parts of the machine during agitate or spin.
To minimize the chance of this happening, bulky items
should be pushed down below the water level after
fill and pushed to sit below the medium high water
level mark on the agitator before spinning. Select the
correct water level manually. Select a slow spin.
To prevent an out of balance load we recommend
washing these items on the Delicate cycle. If you wish
to re-spin the load at a faster speed make sure the load
is sitting below the medium high mark before spinning.
Washing Woollens
The Wool cycle has been designed for products carrying a MACHINE WASHABLE care claim. The
fibers of these woollens have been treated to prevent felting when they are machine washed.
Most handknitted garments are not made of machine washable wool and we recommend that
you hand wash them.
Check the care label.
Use a wool detergent
Use the WOOL WASHABLES cycle.
Hand washed woollens may be spun in your Ecosmart.
To dry woollens lay them flat on a towel and pat into
shape. Dry out of direct sunlight.
Some wool underlays and sheepskin products can
be washed in a washing machine but may produce
excessive amounts of lint that may cause pump
blockages.
Cold Water Washing
If you always use cold water, we recommend that you run a warm Permanent Press wash at
regular intervals, eg every 5th wash.
Bulky items should sit below the
medium high water level mark.
