• Colour: Separate whites from colours.
• Size: Mixing different sized items together in the drum improves the washing performance.
• Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately using an Easy Iron option for pure, new woollen items, curtains, and silk items. Check the labels on the items.

NOTE
Make sure to check the care label on the clothing, and sort them accordingly before starting the wash.

STEP 2 Empty pockets

Empty all the pockets of your laundry items

• Metal objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other laundry items as well as the drum.

Turn clothing with buttons and embroideries inside out

• If pants or jacket zippers are open while washing, the drum may be damaged.
  Zippers should be closed and fixed with a string.

• Clothing with long strings may become entangled with other clothes.
  Make sure to tie the strings before starting the wash.

STEP 3 Use a laundry net

• Brassieres (water washable) must be placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of the brassieres may break through and tear other laundry items.
• Small, light clothing such as socks, gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs may become caught around the door. Place them inside a fine laundry net.
• Do not wash the laundry net by itself without other laundry. This may cause abnormal vibrations that could move the washing machine and result in injury.

STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected cycle if the laundry is heavily soiled.
When selecting the Prewash option, make sure to put powder-type detergent into the main wash compartment.

STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washing machine. Overloading may cause the washing machine to not wash properly. For the load capacity for the type of clothing, see page 38.

NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efficiency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended maximum spin cycle speed is 800 rpm, and the load capacity is 2.0 kg or less.

CAUTION
Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance.

STEP 6 Apply a proper detergent type
The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), colour, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is designed for automatic washing machines.

NOTE

• Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.
• Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidified. This detergent may remain after the rinse cycle, blocking the drain outlet.

CAUTION
When washing wool using the WOOL cycle, use only a neutral liquid detergent.
If used with the WOOL cycle, powder detergent may remain on the laundry and discolor the laundry.

Laundry capsules
To get the best results from using laundry capsules, please follow these instructions.

1. Put the capsule in the bottom of the empty drum towards the rear.

2. Put the laundry in the drum on top of the capsule.
   CAUTION
   For cycles using cold water or cycles that complete in less than one hour, it is a recommended to use a liquid detergent.
