Before washing, you can do a great deal to ensure better results. Divide your garments according to fabric and color. Read the labels, follow their guidelines.

Dividing your

?garments according to

fabric and color, is very important for good results

LAUNDRY PREPARATION

Sorting

Clothes should be sorted from separate items which could damage other garments. Sort items into loads according to similar colors, fabrics, garment construction and degrees of soil.

-Color. Separate clothes into three groups: whites and pastels, medium and bright colors and dark colors. Items which bleed color should be washed alone.

-Type of fabrics. Delicate items should be separated from sturdier items. Fabrics that shed lint should be separated from those which shed none or attract lint.

-Garment constructions. Garments that may fray easily or that have unusual trim require gentle care. These garments may be washed in the loader using the knit cycle. If garments are fragile and delicate, hand washing may be desirable.

-Degree of soil. Heavily soiled items should be separated from the rest of the wash to prevent transfer of soil in the wash water.

Inspection

While sorting clothes into wash-loads, also inspect each garment to see if it requires special care.

-Pretreat heavily soiled areas such as collars, cuffs and centers of pillowcases. Refer to the “Pretreating” section for specific instructions.

-Mend rips and tears, before washing, so further damage is not done to garments.

-Empty pockets. Objects left in pockets such as crayon, pens or markers, or tobacco crumbs may stain an entire wash load. Paper tissues will shred leaving bits on each item in the washer. Remove coins and other foreign objects to prevent damage to the machine.

-Fasten all hooks, zippers and buttons.

-Turn knit garments wrong side out to reduce the tendency of knits to “pill”. Fabric “pills” are balls of fibers on the surface the garments caused by wear or friction.

-Remove loose dirt and sand. Brush dirt from trouser cuffs; shake or vacuum rugs to remove loose surface soil.

-If buckle is washable, place a scrap of material securely around the ornament before washing and drying to prevent scratching and damage to the machine. Remove non-washable trims, buckles, buttons and belts.

-Tie strings, belts and apron sashes into bows to avoid tangling during washing.

-Before loading the washer, make sure the drum is empty.

-Remove stains, while they are fresh and easy to get out. Try cold water first to remove unknown stains. Hot water sets stains containing protein such as blood, egg, meat and milk. To remove difficult stains, refer to the removal Chart at the end of the manual.

Pretreating

Pretreat heavily soiled areas such as collars, cuffs and center of pillowcases by using a prewash spray, or brushing liquid detergent or a laundry detergent or a laundry detergent and water paste over the areas before washing.
