Remove the drawer completely with a sharp pull outwards. When you replace it, if you find that it doesn’t slide right in again give it a sharp tap with'the palm of your hand. 20 Helpful tips for successful washing Here are some practical hints to help you get the best washing results. Don’t overload the machine. The clothes will not move round freely if there are too many of them and the washing powder may not dissolve properly. Always use a low suds washing powder specially made for front loading machines. Excessive foaming gives an unsatisfactory wash and may even harm the machine. The quantity of washing powder required depends on the amount of laundry and how soiled it is. It may therefore be necessary to vary the quantities suggested .on page 17. You will be able to tell if you need to do this when you are used to the machine. Don’t put washing powder into the dispenser until just before starting a programme. If the powder is left for any length of time in the dispenser it may form lumps which are difficult to dissolve. For best results do not wash more than 1kg (21b) of woollen articles at a time. Wash only woollen articles marked "machine washable”. For best results do not wash more than 1.5-2kg (3-5lb) of synthetic fabrics in one load. Synthetic fabrics need plenty of room to move around or they tend to crease. Clothes should be sorted according to the fabric - colour fastness and degree of soiling (see page 14). Mend open seams and tears before washing. Close zips, secure buttons. Collect laces, washable belts etc and put them in bag for washing. Empty pockets. (This is important as should a coin become lodged between the tub and drum it can cause extensive damage). See final paragraph page 23. Remove spots of rust, paint, ink and grass stains before washing (see instructions page 22). Don’t wash light coloured fabrics with dark ones. One may leave specks of fluff on the other. Don’t risk washing coloured articles unless you are sure they are colourfast. It’s worth hand washing the article to find out. Nappies Leave the soiled nappies soaking in a solution of proprietary nappy cleaner. When there are sufficient for a wash, drain off the water (this is advisable as some nappy cleansers have an adverse effect on the rubber door seal), then transfer the nappies to the washing machine. Set the selector dial to J (fast spin) to remove the excess solution. Then wash the nappies on programme C (whites). Dry and air them throroughly. Blankets Only wash blankets which are labelled as suitable for machine washing. Use wash programme P (woollens with a short spin which will remove the excess water and leave the blanket ready to tumble dry or hang out on a line). Curtains Check that the fabric is washable. Remove all the curtain hooks and if the heading is drawn up by means of curtain tape, release the strings to allow the fabric to spread flat. Weigh the curtains and decide if you can wash them in one or more loads. Select the correct programme for the fabric. If the curtains have not been washed for some time they may be dusty, which case it is a good idea to rinse them on programme G or R according to the fabric. After draining, start the suitable wash programme. 21 Helpful tips for successful washing Dyeing You can dye fabrics successfully in the machine but it is essential to buy a good proprietary dye and to read the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Make sure that the fabric is suitable. The dye instructions will guide you on this point. Then wash the article to make sure it is thoroughly clean, using programme C or L according to the fabric. Then follow the instructions for machine dyeing, supplied with the dye. Immediately after you have removed the dyed material from the machine, set it to programme F (without adding washing powder to the dispenser) to clean all traces of dye from the machine. Stain removal Some stains well not be removed in the wash. It is wise to treat them before laundering. The following are simple but effective treatments to use on any washable fabric. Treat the stain as soon as possible and launder afterwards to remove any residual stain. Ballpoint and felt-tip ink: Dab with white spit it on cotton wool (not un acetate oî triacetate fabric). Fountain pen ink: Sponge with cold water to flush out as much ink as possible, or hold the fabric under running cold water. Launder and treat any remaining stains with lemon juice. Grass stains: Dab with white spirit (not on acetate or triacetate). Rinse in clear water. Oil: If heavy stains from cycle or car oil do not come out in the wash, treat them with a proprietary grease solvent. Paint: Emulsion: Sponge immediately with cold water and then launder. If the stain has dried, soften it with methylated spirit or a proprietary paint brush cleaner. (Test an inconspicuous corner of the fabric first). Gloss: Dab with white spirit or proprietary paint brush cleaner. (Test fabric first). Rust (ir...
