colored clothes, stockings, and other clothes on
which lint may be noticeable in a mesh laundry bag
with lint protection.
When washing with other laundry, use the Water-
Injection Rinse function and the <RINSE (3 times)> or
<RINSE (4 times)> operation.

Separate items that bleed
color easily, and wash items
of similar color 2 to 3 pieces
at a time.
(Single pieces of laundry tend to gravitate to one side during the
spin cycle and may not dry sufficiently. Wash them together with
other items for which color transfer is not a concern.)
Remove all coins, hairpins, and objects
(including from pockets)
These objects
may damage the
laundry or cause
malfunctions.
Treat stains as soon as possible
Stains become harder to
remove as time passes. Partial
cleaning of the stained area
before wash may help remove
