Washing
Before washing laundry:-
●
Pre-treat stains.
●
Close zips,fasten belts,tie strings etc...and press studs to prevent tangling.
●
Remove all items from pockets.
●
Limit size of absorbent loads to give good washing/rinsing results.
●
Place small items in a wash bag.
●
Check wash labels as some items may require a cool programme.
●
Wash non-colour fast items,woollens or really dirty clothes separately as they may affect
other items.
●
Laundry will not wash properly if you over load your appliance.
●
Laundry without a wash label should not be machine washed.
Drying (Washer Dryer only)
To carry out a drying only programme the laundry must previously have been washed and
spun.
●
When drying bedspreads,single blankets etc...we recommend that you remove,shake and
reload during the cycle to ensure faster and more even drying.
●
Starched articles should be dried together to avoid distribution of starch onto non-starched
items.
●
Be careful not to over dry.
●
After you have dried a particularly ‘fluffy’load or you have used the machine as a dryer only,
you MUST, after the load has been removed,set your machine to rinse and spin.
Washcare tips
Items Not Suitable For Tumble Drying
●
Garments with the ITCL code -DO NOT TUMBLE DRY
●
Woollens - except on special dry programme (see page 15).
●
Large bulky items eg.quilts,bedspreads pillows etc...expand when dry,preventing
air flow through the appliance.
●
Items containing plastic film,foam rubber or rubber like materials eg.pillows, cushions,
PVC rainwear or inflammable articles which contain inflammable substances eg.towels
contaminated with hair lacquer.
●
Fibreglass (eg.some types of curtains).
●
Items which have been dry cleaned.
Cutting costs effectively:-
●
Maximise the load size Achieve the best use of energy, water,detergent and time by using
the recommended maximum load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load
instead of 2 half loads.
●
Do you need a pre-wash? For heavily soiled laundry only! Save detergent,time,water and
between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting pre-wash for slight to normal
soiled laundry.
●
Is a hot wash required? Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water
before washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme. Save up to 50% energy
by using a 60˚C wash programme.
●
Before using a drying programme Save energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to
reduce the water content before using a drying programme (Washer Dryer only).
