Preparing the Laundry
The headings numbered (
1,2,3,...)
show the operating sequence and can
be used as a brief guide.
Before washing
1 Prepare the wash load
Empty all pockets.
Foreign objects left in pockets (e.g.
nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can
cause damage to clothes and the
machine.
Sort the laundry
Most garments have a Fabric care
label in the collar or side seam. Sort the
laundry by care label and color.
Only wash items that are labeled ma-
chine washable by the manufacturer.
Dark fabrics often contain “excess dye”
and should be washed separately sev-
eral times before being included in a
mixed load.
Delicate fabrics should be washed sep-
arately using a delicates program.
Only wash wool or wool mixtures if they
are labeled machine washable on the
textile care label.
Pre-treat the laundry
Badly soiled areas (e.g. collars and
cuffs) and water soluble stains can be
pre-treated with bar soap, stain
remover, or detergent mixed into a solu-
tion or paste.
Do not use detergents containing sol-
vents in the machine.
