Sorfing Wash Loads
Precaufions for Fabric Care Before Wash Cycle
Read and observe the following to prevent shrinkage or damage to clothes.
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty.
-Items such as clips, matches, pens, coins, and keys
can damage both your washer and your clothes.
OCIose zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent
these items from snagging or tangling on other
clothes.
• Pretreat heavily stained areas before washing.
- Doing so will produce clean, stain-free results.
OCombine large and small items in a load. Load large
items first.
OLarge items should not be more than half of the total
washload.
OThe washer can be fully loaded, but the drum should
not be tightly packed with items.
-The door of the washer should close easily.
• Brush heavy soil, dust, or hair off fabrics before
washing.
- Laundry may not wash clean if there is dirt or sand
on the fabrics, or items may be damaged due to
particles rubbing against sheer fabrics.
OWash blankets individually.
-Washing more than one blanket in a load may
produce inferior results due to tangling or an
unbalanced load.
oAIways separate fabrics according to their colors
and wash them separately to prevent colors from
running.
- Fabrics may be damaged or become stained due
to fabric dyes running, or due to foreign objects
transferring from one fabric to another.
oDo not wash single items, except for bulky items such
as blankets. Make sure to wash laundry in similar
types of loads.
- Washing a single small item may result in the tub
becoming unbalanced, vibrating and making a noise.
• Do not wash waterproof clothes.
- This may cause abnormal vibration, or may cause
the load
to bounce, which could damage the tub.
• Check if there are any foreign objects in the door seal
and take extra care that clothes do not get caught
there.
- Foreign objects in the door seal may stain clothes,
and water may leak if clothes get caught in the door
seal.
OWash underwear or small, light items in a laundry net
(mesh bag).
- Small, light items may get caught in the door seal,
and a brassiere hook may damage other items or the
tub.
