Sports
Outdoor activities can create some unique washing challenges. We have created four helpful
wash cycles to quickly deal with these situations, with no thinking required.
Sweaty
The clothes you exercise in require a little extra care to remove the odours and
dirt that tend to penetrate into the fabric structure. This cycle incorporates a
warm/hot wash with a fast spin to thoroughly clean sweaty sports clothes.
Muddy
Clothes soiled with mud need to be washed in a special way, so that all traces
can be removed. Mud requires a cold wash with lots of dilution. Cold water is
the key, as washing in warm can set mud stains. This cycle uses a cold wash
with extra rinses to help remove mud from clothing.
Sports Shoes
The SPORT SHOES cycle has been designed to freshen up sports shoes. This
cycle uses a warm/cold, conventional wash with light agitation. A 30 minute
soak helps to penetrate into the fabric structure to remove dirt. This is followed
by a double deep rinse, and slow spin to finish off.
Beach Gear
Sand, grass and other bits can get into your wash after a day in the outdoors.
The BEACH GEAR cycle helps to remove these impurities from the creases of
your clothes, by using a cold wash with generous rinses. This cycle can also
be useful for minimising the effects of any impurities that may be in your
household water supply.
Clean up
Maintaining your AquaSmart™ in top condition will ensure that you receive the optimum wash
each and every time.
Clean Me
If you regularly use fabric softener, or only wash in cold water we recommend
that you use the CLEAN ME cycle to clean your AquaSmart™ washer 5 – 6
times a year. This will reduce the risk of Scrud (see page 12) forming on
your wash bowl. This cycle uses a hot wash to clean the bowl and rinse out
the fabric softener dispenser. This is followed by a two hour soak then it is
finished with two deep rinses and a very short spin.
