WASHING All modern detergents produced for automatic washing machines are suitable. Use dispensing aids, e.g. balls, if these are supplied with the detergent. Tablets are suitable for full loads, but note that it may be impractical to reduce tablets for smaller loads. Some tablets do not dissolve as rapidly as others, and may not be suitable for programmes with short durations. Do not use biological detergents on silk, as the enzymes may damage the silk.
WASHING Fabric conditioner and liquid starch Fabric conditioners make garments soft to handle and help prevent static cling when tumble drying. Starch stiffens and gives body to items of laundry, e.g. shirts, tablecloths and bed linen. Automatic dispensing of fabric conditioner or liquid starch to laundry at the end of a programme Do not use powder starch formulations or viscous liquid starch in the § compartment as it will clog up. See below.
DRYING Separate drying The separate drying programme must be used if the load in the wash programme is greater than the maximum load permitted for drying, or if you only want to dry part of the load that was washed. Tips on drying Do not put soaking wet items into the machine to dry them; Spin them thoroughly after washing using the appropriate spin speed. – Woollens and wool blends tend to become matted and shrink if dried in a tumble dryer. They can be partially dried using the Woollens programme.
DRYING B Switch the washer-dryer on The Washing indicator light must not be lit as well as this would mean that the relevant washing programme would begin before the drying process.
