Laundry guidelines
STEP 1 Sort
Sort the laundry according to these 
criteria:
•  Care Label: Sort the laundry into 
cottons, mixed fibres, synthetics, silks, 
wools, and rayon.
•  Color: Separate whites from colors.
•  Size: Mixing different sized items 
together in the drum improves the 
washing performance.
•  Sensitivity: Wash delicate items 
separately. For pure, new woolen items, 
curtains, and silk items, check the labels 
on the items.
NOTE
Make sure to check the care label on all 
clothing, and sort clothing accordingly 
before starting the wash.
STEP 2 Empty pockets
Empty all the pockets of your laundry 
items
•  Metal objects such as coins, pins, and 
buckles on clothing may damage other 
laundry items as well as the drum.
Turn clothing with buttons and 
embroideries inside out
•  If pants or jacket zippers are open while 
washing, the drum may be damaged. 
Zippers should be closed and fixed with 
a string.
•  Clothing with long strings may become 
entangled with other clothes. Make sure 
to tie the strings before starting the 
wash.
STEP 3 Use a laundry net
•  Brassieres (water washable) must be 
placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of 
the brassieres may break through and 
tear other laundry items.
•  Small, light clothing such as socks, 
gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs 
may become caught around the door. 
Place them inside a fine laundry net.
•  Do not wash the laundry net by itself 
without other laundry. This may cause 
abnormal vibrations that could move 
the washer and result in injury.
