Fully automatic water level

You may notice that your AquaSmart™ clothes washer behaves differently from your previous washer.

Your AquaSmart™, like all High Efficiency washers, has a fully automatic water level. This means that, like Front Loaders, the selection of the water level is left entirely up to the washer. This ensures optimum wash performance and water savings.

Should you wish to use more water, simply select a Conventional cycle (refer to Conventional mode page 8).

Sorting and loading

It is important to sort your wash load to ensure optimum wash performance.

SHEETS – Separate out sheets and duvet/doona covers and use the SHEETS cycle which has been especially designed for these items. Ensure that duvet/doona covers are buttoned or zipped up. To get the best possible wash for sheets, load these items around the edge of the bowl rather than directly across the low profile agitator.

COLOURED ITEMS – Dye or colour run can be a problem with High Efficiency washers, so separate highly coloured garments (especially when they are new) and choose the COLOURS cycle. Most dye transfer occurs when clothes are left too long in the machine at the completion of the cycle so try not to leave your coloured clothes lingering in the machine.

BULKY ITEMS – Duvet/doona inners, sleeping bags, ski jackets , blankets and throws are all items which tend to behave unusually in a clothes washer. The lighter ones tend to float, while a large blanket can get very heavy and make spinning difficult. Your AquaSmart™ offers a BULKY cycle designed to take care of these washing challenges.

CREASABLES – When you are concerned about creasing or wrinkling we recommend you use the EASY IRON cycle. Alternatively, select one of the Conventional cycles. The extra water used by these cycles will help to reduce creasing. Reducing the spin speed of the wash may also help (refer to page 16).

JEANS – These items can quickly lose their colour. For best results we recommend that you wash jeans using the COLOURS cycle to minimise any potential colour loss.

SOIL – Very dirty, sandy, or linty loads are best washed separately to prevent transfer onto other garments. It may be that you have new towels that create lots of lint or very sandy beach gear. We suggest using a Conventional cycle in this circumstance.

DELICATES – To take extra special care of delicate items, we suggest using the DELICATE cycle.
