Care Labels

Look for a care label on your clothes. This will tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.

Sorting

To get the best results, Sort clothes into loads that can be washed with the same wash cycle. Water temperature and spin speed and different fabrics need to be washed in different ways. Always sort dark colors from pale colors and whites. Wash separately as dye and lint transfer can occur causing discoloration of white etc. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled one. Soil (Heavy, Normal, Light) Separate clothes according to amount of soil. Color (White, Lights, Darks) Separate white fabrics from colored fabrics. Lint (Lint producers, Collectors) Wash lint producers and lint collectors separately.

Caring before loading

n Caring before washing n Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items. ? Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clip, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your washer and your clothes. ? 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 little detergent dissolved in water onto stains like collars and cuffs to help shift dirt.

12 dding detergent

A

? Main wash only U ?PreWash+MainWashU ? Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of the fabric softener which could stain clothes. ? Do not leave the fabric softener in the detergent drawer for more than 2 days. (Fabric softener could harden) ? Softener will automatically be added during the last rinse cycle. ? Do not open the drawer when water is supplied. ? Solvents(benzene, etc) are not allowable.

The Dispenser Drawer

? The detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacture. ? If too much detergent is used more than the recommended amount, too many suds can occur and this will decrease the washing result or cause heavy load to the motor. (Causing a malfunction) ? Use powder detergent only for thefront loading washer. ? Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid oversudsing. Tips Full load : according to manufacturer's recommendation. Part load : 3/4 of the normal amount. Minimum load : 1/2 of full load. ? Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the cycle.
