discoloration of white clothing If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with Iightiy soi}ed ones
Soil (Heavy Normal Lighl) Separale clolhes according lo amount of soil. [
Colnr (White, Lighls, Darks) Separate while fabrlc_ from colored fabrics. ]Lint (Lint Producers, Colleclors) Wash lint producers am! lint coileclors separately,
3. Check before loading
Combine targe and small items in a !oad Load large items first
Large items should not be more than half the total wash load,
Do not wash single items This may cause an out-of-balance load Add one or two similar items
• Check all the pockets to make sure that they are
empty Things such as clip, matches, pens,
coins, and keys can damage both your washer
and your clothes

If this shnuld happen, set tile washer for a rinse and spin cycle to remove any cleaning substance h'om the
washer before doing a hlad of laundry.
=The washing drum
. If you live in a hard water area, lime scale can continuously build up in places where it cannot be seen
and it is not easily removed from the drum,
Over time the build-up of scale clogs appfiances, and if it is not kept in check, these will eventually
have to be replaced
. Although the washing drum is made of Stainless steel, specks of rust can be caused by small metal articles
(paper clips, safety pins, etc.) which have been left in the drum
-The washing drum should be cleaned from time to time.
• If you use descating agents, dyes, or bleaches, make sure they are suitable for washing machine use
• Descaler could contain components that can damage part of your washing machine
