● We strongly recommend that you DO NOT wash

underwired bras in this machine. Should the

wires become detached it could cause damage to

your laundry and the machine. If the washcare

label states that the bra is machine washable,

then we advise placing it in a sealed pillow case or

a similar washbag.

To achieve the best wash results the manufacturer’s recommended amount of detergent should be measured and added to the main detergent compartment.

Dispensing liquid detergent

We recommend the use of a detergent dosing ball, as provided by your detergent manufacturer.

Adding fabric conditioner

Pour the recommended amount of fabric conditioner into the compartment. Do not exceed the maximum fill line.

Pre-Wash

When selecting prewash, add detergent to both the pre-wash and the main wash compartments.

●Do not use the machine if the item to be washed does not have a wash label.

Before washing laundry we recommend you:

●Pre-treat awkward stains with washable treatments. Do not wash any items that have previously been treated with solvents.

●Close zips, fasten belts, tie strings and close press studs to prevent tangling.

●Empty all objects from pockets as they may damage the laundry and the machine.

!Remember you will be charged for a service engineers visit to rectify malfunction resulting from objects such as coins, pens, hair grips etc. falling from pockets.

●Limit the size of absorbent loads ie. towels, to half loads to give good washing and rinsing results.

●Place small items in a wash bag.

●Always follow the care label on items when choosing the wash programme.

●Wash non-colourfast items or really dirty items separately as they may affect other laundry.
