Solving wash problems
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Creasing. Overloading of the washer. Try reducing load size.
Inappropriate cycle
selection.
Choose ‘Delicate’ cycle as this cycle
has been designed to minimise
creasing.
Spin speed too high. Try selecting a lower spin speed.
Do not leave wet clothes to sit in
the washer or laundry basket.
Wash temperature too high
for items.
Try selecting a lower wash
temperature.
Sort your load so that items of
similar weight are washed together.
Poor soil removal. Wash cycle selected not
suited to soil level in load.
Are you using the most appropriate
wash cycle for the amount of dirt?
Warm wash water is too
cold.
Refer to ‘Changing pre-set options –
Wash temperatures’ page36.
Not enough detergent for
load size or amount of soil.
Refer to the detergent package for
the manufacturers recommended
dosage.
White clothes are better
washed separately.
Separate light and heavily soiled
items, as clothes can pick up soil
from dirty wash water.
Cold water wash is too cold. Refer to ‘Changing pre-set options –
Wash temperatures’ page 37.
Wash temperature not
suited to soil type in load.
Blood and mud are better washed in
cold water, while oily soils are better
washed in warmer water.
Overloading the washer. Try reducing your load size.
A full load of items of the
same size eg sheets may
not wash as well.
Loads made up of articles of varying
sizes will wash better.
Hard water requires more
detergent than soft water.
If you have hard water, try adding
more detergent.
Tangling. Washing with too much
water (underloading) can
cause the clothes to tangle
around one another.
Select an appropriate water level
for the load size, or select ‘Auto’
water level. (Refer to ‘Wash options
page28).
Items wrapped around the
agitator when loading.
Place items, especially sheets, in the
bowl as loose parcels.
