Bleach

Choosing the right cycle

Remember to check clothing labels before you begin to ensure that garments are bleach compatible.

If you wish to use bleach please select the BLEACH option. The bleach will be diluted and automatically released into the wash at the correct point in the cycle. This ensures maximum bleach efficiency and optimum clothes care. If the Bleach option is not selected bleach will not be dispensed into the wash and will drain away.

1Select your wash cycle and press SELECT.

2Scroll through the wash options until BLEACH is highlighted. Press SELECT.

3Scroll until Bleach ON is highlighted and press SELECT to confirm your choice.

When washing white items, select the WHITES cycle for best performance with bleach. When washing colors use Color-safe bleach and select the COLORS cycle .

Note: For best clothes care the Bulky and Lifestyle cycles do not offer a bleach dispensing option.

How much bleach do I use and where do I put it?

Liquid Bleach

Your AquaSmart™ washer requires less bleach than traditional top loading washers, no more than 1/4 cup (or 70ml). Pour bleach into a measuring cup with a spout and then carefully pour this into the bleach dispenser ensuring that it does not fill higher than the MAX level. Adjust the amount of bleach you use to the load size, eg. for smaller loads use less bleach.

IMPORTANT:

Do not fill the bleach dispenser beyond the MAX fill mark.

Do not pour undiluted, liquid chlorine bleach directly onto clothes. Use only liquid chlorine bleach in this dispenser.

To avoid splashing and spills we recommend the use of a cup with a pouring spout.

Failure to follow the instructions above could result in damage to clothing.

Fabric Softener

We recommend the use of fabric softener dryer sheets in the dryer to soften your load. This washer does not have liquid fabric softener dispensing ability.
