Fisher & Paykel GWLO8 Washer User Manual


 
LOADING
BEFORE WASHING
CHECK POCKETS Things such as nails, hairclips,
matches and pens can damage both your
washer 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.
PRE-TREAT ANY STAINS
FOR A BALANCED LOAD:
* Place unfolded clothes firmly and evenly
around the agitator.
* Do not wrap large items, such as sheets,
around the agitator.
* A mixture of small and large items will wash
the best.
DO NOT OVERLOAD THE MACHINE Ensure
that the load does not extend above the dispenser
as splashing may occur.
WASHING BULKY ITEMS
Forcing large items into the machine may result in
them being damaged during washing. Ensure
there is sufficent room in the machine for items to
move when being washed.
Some items float up during the wash, (eg duvets,
pillows). If they sit too high they may come into
contact with 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 a slow spin.
We recommend washing these items on the
Delicate cycle. If you wish to re-spin the load at a
faster speed ensure the load is sitting below the
medium high mark before spinning.
Bulky items should sit below the
medium high water level mark.
