Check around the door seal when removing the load for small items that may be caught in the seal.

Preparing the Wash Load

Sort laundry for best washing results, and then prepare laundry according to the symbols on the care labels.

Sorting the Wash Load

• For best washing results, sort your clothes according to the symbol on the care labels according to the type of fabric and washing temperature and wash them with adapted spin speed.

• 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.

NOTE

• Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light): Separate clothes according to amount of soil. The Intensive option is effective when washing normally and heavily soiled laundry.

• Colour (White, Lights, Darks): Separate white fabrics from coloured fabrics. Wash new dark and colored garments separately at first.

• Lint (Lint producers, Collectors): Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

16

Checking the Clothes Care Label

Symbols on the care labels

The symbols tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.

Symbol Wash / Fabric type

• Normal Wash

• Cotton, Mixed Fabrics

• Easy Care

Softeners

Detergent Dosage

• Detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer and selected according to type, colour, soiling of the fabric and the washing temperature.

• If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent amount.

• 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.

• You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the wash cycle immediately.

• Do not use liquid detergent if you are using

Delay End function, or if you have selected

Pre Wash option, as the liquid may harden.

• 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.

• Use only suitable detergents for the respective type of clothing:

− Liquid detergent is often designed for special applications, e.g. for coloured fabric, wool, delicate or dark laundry.

− Powdered detergent is suitable for all types of fabric.

− For better washing results of white and pale garments, use powdered detergent with bleach.

− Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the wash cycle.

NOTE

• Do not let the detergent harden. Doing so may lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or odour.

• Full load: According to manufacturer’s recommendation

• Part load: ¾ of the normal amount

• Minimum load: ½ of full load
