Washing Considerations

• The working condition of the washer should be (0-40)°C. If used under 0°C,the inlet valve and drainingsystem may be damaged. If the machine is placed under condition of 0°C or less, then it should be transferred to normal ambient temperature to ensure the water supply hose and drain hose are not frozen before use.

• Please check the labels and the explanation of using detergent before wash. Use non-foaming or lessfoaming detergent suitable for machine
  washing properly.

• New clothes in particular, can leach colour onto other clothing items, particularly whites. Consider washing these and bright colours separately.

• Stained clothing should be treated with a stain remover, prior to washing.

• Temperature sensitive clothes should be washed in accordance with their care direction label. Otherwise distortion and/or changes in colour could occur.

• Never allow washing to sit in the machine for a long period of time- particularly when wet. Clothes can become mouldy and develop an odour.

• Certain clothing cannot be washed in a washing machine and their care directions may state dry cleaning or hand washing required.

• Wrinkle style clothes, embossed clothes, resin clothes, etc may become distorted when immersed in water.

• Avoid washing clothes without care direction labels within the appliance, to be safe.

• Always remove all items from clothing pockets, as harditems can cause damage to the appliance.

• Try to wash clothing colours and sizes in like loads, as this will improve the effectiveness of the washing and results.

• Close all clothing zips and ensure all buttons are fastened securely.

• Delicate items such as bras, handkerchiefs and ties should be washed within a special washing bag, to prevent damage to themselves and other  clothes.

• When washing a large single item that could become heavy (i.e. a towel or jacket), it can cause the appliance to become unbalance during its spin cycle. Therefore it’s recommended to add one or two more clothing items to help the machine balance.

• Try to remove any pet hair, dust and stains from clothing prior to washing.

• Baby clothing should be washed separately.

• Clothing that gets easily “fuzzed” or loses fibres easily, should be washed separately.

• Black clothing items should be washed separately.

• Do not wash waterproof materials within the washing machine.
