Cleaning products:
Open the small draw usually located at the top left of the machine.
Here you will find two or three small compartments.
The smaller compartment, usually with a filter, is where you pour the fabric softener.
The larger compartment is for the washing powder.
Fill each with the advised amount. It's usually a cap full of each.
If you have liquid capsules do not put them in here.
Place them at the bottom of the washing machine drum underneath the clothes.
Choose your temperature:
If you have delicates in your load make sure you set your washing machine on a low heat. 40 degrees should be fine. If you have cottons that are colour fast, have been washed plenty of times or stained badly, make sure you wash on a higher heat. Between 60 and 90 degrees. However, it's always best to be eco-friendly so unless your clothes are really dirty, wash them on a low heat.
Unload:
When the cycle has finished the door will remain locked for a few minutes.
Don't force it open. It's meant to do this to make sure all the water has drained from the machine.
When it unlocks, remove the clothes and hang them out to dry or put in tumble dryer. |
