Hints & Tips
For Best Washing Results
Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with
small ones.
Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour
fastness and degree of soilage.
White items should not be washed with coloured items.
Wash new coloured items separately when washing
for the first time.
Treat stains such as paint, ink, rust and grass before
washing.
Avoid washing frayed or torn articles.
When washing fabrics requiring different wash
temperatures, always select the lowest temperature.
Weigh the laundry the first few times you use the
appliance.

listed below as a guide:

Consult the care label on the garment. Only wash
fabrics which are designed to be machine washed.
Place small items such as socks, laces, hand-
kerchiefs etc in a washing bag or pillow case, as it
is possible for such items to slip down between the
tub and the inner drum.
Items that should not be put in the machine:
Underwired bras.
Garments which have been in contact with volatile
or petroleum based products.
Some duvets and eiderdowns should be washed in
large commercial machines. Check with the manu-
facturer of the item.
Help the Environment:
To save water, energy and help protect the environment.
Do not use a pre wash for normally soiled washing.
Wash full loads.
Pre-treat stains and then wash at a lower temperature.
Only use the advised quantities of detergent and
fabric softener.
