Woolmark Apparel Care
The wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by The Woolmark
Company for the washing of machinewashable wool products, provided that
the products are washed according to the instructions on the garment label
and those issued by the manufacturer of these washing machines M1766.

16
Detergent
Your washer requires low-sudsing detergent to prevent oversudsing problems. Low sudsing
detergent comes in powder or liquid and is labelled front loading, low suds, high efficiency
or HE. Using top loader detergent in your front loader washer may lead to excessive suds
formation, which will lengthen the cycle time as the washer waits for the suds to dissolve.
The washer has auto dosing compartments for liquid detergent and fabric softener, and
a manual dosing compartment for powder or liquid detergent. Ensure that detergent and
softener are filled correctly into their respective compartments.
Do not overfill the detergent compartment. Too much detergent could result in waterand
detergent spilling onto the floor.
Make sure that the dispenser is completely closed before starting the cycle. Donotopen it
again until the cycle is complete and the washer has stopped spinning.
AUTO DOSE LIQUID DETERGENT COMPARTMENT
Stores up to 1100ml (max) of liquid detergent
suitablefor several washes depending on load size.
AUTO DOSE FABRIC SOFTENER COMPARTMENT
Stores up to 540ml (max) of fabric softener
suitablefor several washes depending on load size.
MANUAL DOSE LIQUID/POWDER
DETERGENT COMPARTMENT
For liquid or powder detergent used for a
single wash and when PRE WASH is selected.
DETERGENT AND SOFTENER
Detergent advice
If unpleasant odours are noticeable from your washer, it is possible that not enough
detergent is being used for the soil level in your loads. Run a DRUM CLEAN cycle and either
buy a better quality detergent or use a higher dose.
If you find foam leaking from your washer, check if you are using a low sudsing or front
loader type detergent. When using MANUAL DOSE, check the quantity you are using against
the manufacturer’s recommended dose on the label. You may need to reduce the amount
you are using.
If using AUTO DOSE you may need to reduce or increase the amount used. Refer to
‘Adjusting the amount of detergent or softener dispensed on Auto dose’ for details on
how to adjust the dosage.

17
Fabric softener
The washer will automatically flush the fabric softener during the rinse part of the cycle.
If you wish to use fabric softener we recommend:
zIf you fill beyond the MAX mark, the fabric softener will be dispensed into the drum
prematurely and contribute to a waxy built-up.
zFabric softener cannot be selected on SNEAKERS, STEAM REFRESH or the QUICK 15 cycles.
zThe amount of softener dispensed depends on load size.
Fabric softener advice
zClean your dispenser regularly.
zClean your washer regularly using the DRUM CLEAN cycle.
zComplete wash cycles at a wash temperature of 40°C or above at regular intervals
(egevery 5thwash) as washing in cold water increases the chance of a waxy
build-up occurring.
Waxy build-up can occur within any washer when fabric softener comes in contact with
detergent. This build-up is not brought about by a fault in the washing machine. If allowed
to build up in the washer it can result in stains on clothes and an unpleasant smell in
your washer.
Auto Dose
AUTO DOSE DETERGENT is the default setting for allwashcycles (except WOOL and
DRUM CLEAN). Only liquid detergent can be used for AUTO DOSE. AUTO DOSE will
automatically dispense the right amount of liquid detergent and fabric softener (optional)
perwashcycle.
If you wish to add fabric softener, you need to selectSOFTENER using the AUTO DOSE button.
zAuto dosing of fabric softener can be used in combination with both auto andmanual
dosing of detergent.
We do not recommend storing laundry wash products containing acetic acid, eg vinegar, in
the AUTO DOSE compartments.
If using Auto Dose
Fill the LIQUID DETERGENT compartment up to the MAX level indicated.
Fill the FABRIC SOFTENER compartment upto the MAX level indicated.
If softener is selected, the washer will automatically dispense the fabric softener during the
rinse part of eachcycle.
DETERGENT AND SOFTENER

18
DETERGENT AND SOFTENER
Manual Dose
Liquid or powder detergent can be used for MANUAL DOSE.
Where a detergent for a certain fabric and/or cycle is recommended, MANUAL DOSE is the
default setting (eg WOOL and DRUM CLEAN).
If using Manual Dose
MANUAL DOSE can dispense powder or liquid detergent for washing.
Follow the instructions stated on the detergent label as a guide when determining
thecorrect dosage of detergent suitable for your wash load.
The detergent dosage needed may vary depending on the amount of soil, size of the load
and the water quality.

19
WASH PREPARATION
Sorting
Sort items according to colour, fabric type, and soil type. Wash fine, delicate fabrics
separately from thick, heavy fabrics. Always separate coloured items from whites, especially
when they are new. Colour run could be an issue if you wash items at highertemperatures.
Some soils, like mud and blood are best washed in cold water. Oilysoils (eg some foods
and marks on shirt collars) are best washed in warm water. The care label will advise on
how the garment should be washed.
Before you load
zCheck pockets for items that could damage your clothes or get caught in the washer.
zClose zippers, hooks and eyes, and other fastenings (ie fasten the opening of duvet/
doona covers), and remove loose bra wires. All these can damage both your washer
and your clothes.
zPlace delicate items, such as lingerie, in a mesh laundry bag before placing in the washer.
zPre-treat any stains, taking care not to spray pre-treaters on your washer as they can
cause damage to the plastic surfaces.
Loading
Your washer will be more efficient when washing larger loads, so try to collect enough
items to loosely fill the drum when the items are dry.
