Preparation
Read the following to understand how best to prepare your laundry for washing.
Organising Laundry
• Read the washing label on each garment to help you sort your washing into dierent loads.
• Sort the laundry by colour, type of fabric and by how soiled it is. This will help you choose the
correct programme and temperature for each wash.
• Do not exceed the maximum load!
Preparing Laundry
• Treat stains before washing.
• Some items should be put into a cleaning net before going into
the machine. i.e. bras with metal wires, tights and lace clothing to
prevent damage.
• Check that pockets do not contain any objects which may damage
your clothes and the machine.
• Tie up any loose strings on laundry, close zippers and reverse
clothing with zips inside out.
• To prevent any large, heavy objects (e.g., buckles, large buttons,
etc.) from hitting the glass door, turn your clothing inside out, or
remove the heavy objects. These could damage your laundry or
the machine.
• Remove any surplus hair, animal fur, sand, and other materials with
a brush before washing.
• If clothes have raised fabric, turn them inside out.
• Clothes that are not colour fast should be washed separately.
• Insert your clothes into the machine. Close the machine door.
Ensure that you do not trap any items of clothing between the
loading door and the rubber seal.
• Do not wash clothes stained with kerosene, alcohol, gasoline and
other ammable materials.
