STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Make sure the laundry does not exceed the plastic area (A) in the figure on page 27. Otherwise, it may cause the washing machine to not wash properly or cause damage to the machine or the laundry itself, or a water leak.
NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers, the wash time may be lengthened or the spin efficiency may be reduced. For bedding or bedding covers, the recommended load capacity is 3.5kg or less.
CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the “Ub” information code is displayed, redistribute the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce the spinning performance and cause damage to the machine or the laundry itself.
STEP 6 Apply a proper detergent type
The type of detergent depends on the type of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), color, wash temperature, and degree of soiling. Always use “low suds” laundry detergent, which is designed for automatic washing machines.
CAUTION
•Use an appropriate amount of detergent. Excess amounts of detergent do not produce much improvement in washing results but cause damage to the laundry due to deteriorated rinsing performance.
•Bleach is strong alkali in nature, causing damage to or discoloration of the laundry.
•Use a longer or added rinse cycle when using powder detergent that is very likely to remain on the laundry and cause bad odors after washing is complete.
•If an excessive amount of detergent is used especially in cold water, the detergent doesn’t dissolve well, ending up with contaminated laundry, hoses, and/or tub.
•In case of timed washing, do not apply detergent directly to laundry or the tub. The laundry may be discolored. Use the detergent drawer.
•When washing wool using the Wool cycle, use only a neutral detergent to avoid discoloring the laundry.
NOTE
•Follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations based on the weight of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your local area. If you are not sure about the water hardness, contact a local water authority.
•Do not use detergent that tends to be hardened or solidified. This detergent may remain after the rinse process, blocking the drain outlet.
