Sorting laundry.
••To get the best results, sort clothes into
loads that can be washed with the same
wash cycle.
••Different fabrics need to be washed at
varying temperatures and spin speeds.
••Wash two or more towels or knits together.
If washed separately, laundry which
absorbs a lot of water may not be washed
well or abnormal spin-drying may occur due
to leaning.
••Always sort dark colours from pale colours
and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint
transfer can occur causing discolouration of
white and pale garments. If possible, do not
wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled
ones.
−−Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) :
Separate clothes according to amount of
soil.
−−Colour (White, Lights, Darks):
Separate white fabrics from coloured
fabrics.
−−Lint (Lint producers, Collectors):
Wash lint producers and lint collectors
separately.
••Close zippers, hooks and strings to make
sure that these items don’t snag on other
clothes.
••Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small
amount of detergent dissolved water onto
stains to help lift dirt.
••If an item of clothing has a long lace
attached to it, arrange the lace so it cannot
be tangled or put it into a washing net.
••Remove the insides of cushions, pillows,
or sitting mats and only wash the cover.
The insides may protrude, damaging
other laundry. Plastic parts may generate
abnormal vibrations.
CAUTION
••Divide laundry in large volume for washing
so that the laundry can be submerged under
water completely. If laundry expands during
washing, it may cause damage to the laundry
and parts during washing or spin.

EN
Adding Cleaning Products
Adding Detergent
Detergent Dosage
Measure the detergent with the detergent
dispenser and pour it into the tub.
••Detergent should be used according to the
instruction of the detergent manufacturer and
selected according to type, colour, soiling of
the fabric and washing temperature.
••If too much detergent is used, too many suds
can occur and this will result in poor washing
results or cause heavy load to the motor.
••If you wish to use liquid detergent follow
the guidelines provided by the detergent
manufacturer.
••If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent
amount.
••Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for
water temperature, water hardness, size and
soil level of the load. For best results, avoid
oversudsing.
••Refer to the label of the clothes, before
choosing the detergent and water temperature.
••When using the washing machine, use
designated detergent for each type of clothing
only:
−−General powdered detergents for all types of
fabric
−−Powdered detergents for delicate fabric
−−Liquid detergents for all types of fabric or
designated detergents only for wool
••For better washing performance and whitening,
use detergent with the general powdered
bleach.
••Use the provided detergent measuring cup to
add only one cup of detergent.
••Reduce the amount of detergent for lightly
