Sorting And Loading - Fisher & Paykel AquaSmart Instructivo De Instalación Y Guía De Usuario

Fully automatic water level
You may notice that your AquaSmart™ clothes washer behaves differently from your previous
washer.
Your AquaSmart™, like all High Efficiency washers, has a fully automatic water level. This means
that, like Front Loaders, the selection of the water level is left entirely up to the washer. This
ensures optimum wash performance and water savings.
Should you wish to use more water, simply select a Conventional cycle (refer to Conventional
mode page 18).
Sorting and loading explained
It is important to sort your wash load to ensure optimum wash performance.
BED SHEETS – Separate out bed sheets and comforter covers and use the SHEETS cycle
which has been especially designed for these items. Ensure that comforter covers are
buttoned or zipped up. To get the best possible wash for bed sheets, drop these items
directly into the washer, do not wrap them around the low profile agitator.
COLORED ITEMS – Dye or color run can be a problem with High Efficiency washers,
so separate highly colored garments (especially when they are new) and choose a
conventional cycle. Most dye transfer occurs when clothes are left too long in the
machine at the completion of the cycle, so try not to leave your colored clothes lingering
in the washer.
BULKY ITEMS – Comforter inners, sleeping bags, ski jackets, blankets and throws are all
items which tend to behave unusually in a clothes washer. The lighter ones can float,
while a large blanket can get very heavy and make spinning difficult. Your AquaSmart™
offers a BULKY cycle designed to take care of these washing challenges.
ITEMS THAT WRINKLE – When you are concerned about creasing or wrinkling we
recommend you use the EASY IRON cycle. Alternatively select one of the Conventional
cycles. The extra water used by these cycles will help to reduce wrinkling. Reducing the
spin speed of the wash may also help.
SOIL – Very dirty, sandy, or linty loads are best washed separately to prevent transfer
onto other garments. It may be that you have new towels that create lots of lint or very
sandy beach gear. We suggest using the Conventional mode in this circumstance, eg. on
a heavy cycle.
DELICATES – To take extra special care of delicate items, we suggest using the DELICATE
cycle.
