ADVANTAGES OF TUMBLE WASH
q MOST EFFECTIVE CLEANING AS THE CLOTHES PASS THROUGH 
SOAPY WATER AND ALSO FALL ON SOAP SOLUTION IMPROVING 
WETTING  OF CLOTHES.
q RESEMBLES THE THUMPING AND RUBBING ACTION OF GENTLE 
HAND WASH.
q USES LESS WATER COMPARED TO TUB TYPE TOP LOADERS.
q LESS WATER MEANS LESS DETERGENT AND ELECTRICITY 
CONSUMPTION.
q WASHING IS EFFECTIVE BY DETERGENCY, SOAKING, HEATING, 
TUMBLING  AND SQUEEZING.
q GIVES BETTER DRYING EFFECT BY SPINNING.

OPERATION
SORTING OF GARMENTS
q Machine to be used for machine washable fabrics only (Look for 
wash symbols given on your garments.)
q Wash woollens separately only if label on garments permits it.
q Non-fast coloured should be washed with like colours only .
q Wash whites separately from colours.
q Non - fast coloured to be washed at temperature recommended by 
manufacturer.
q Check the pockets for any loose articles like coins, keys, keychains 
etc. Remove these articles as these can damage the drum/tub.
q Do not mix clothes that give lint with clothes that attract lint (e.g lint 
givers-woollens, socks, coarse cotton fabrics etc. Lint takers- 
synthetic fibres and corduroys).
LOADING THE MACHINE
q Open the front porthole door, place 
garments loosely inside drum. For best 
results load garments one by one 
,preferably mix of large and small 
clothes
q Turn knitted garments inside out, 
Remove loose hooks, rings and pins 
found on curtains etc.  
Or
Tie a knot around them with the 
garment itself.
q Close door and press till you hear a 
‘click’. Ensure that no cloth is jammed 
between door and rubber gasket of 
frame.
q For large garments like bed covers and 
curtains etc. open out the garments and 
hold from the centre to load.
q Ensure that volume of load allows the clothes to tumble freely in the 
drum for best wash results.
q Over loading the drum will affect wash quality. It can also damage 
the machine and clothes in the long run.
q Running the machine under loaded may cause excessive vibration, 
noise and damage.
14
DETERGENT TO BE USED AND QUANTITY
q
The best results will be achieved using correct amount of washing 
machine detergent.
q Approximate quantities to be used:
Full load i.e. 5 kgs 
Detergents to be used as per directions 
indicated by the manufacturer on their 
package.
Half Load 
i.e. 2.5 kg and below 
Use 20 to 25% less detergent.
q Use liquid detergent only when a single wash is required.
q Hard water and heavily soiled clothes require more than the 
 recommended quantity of detergents.
q
Frequent use of insufficient detergent will be noticeable as follows:
- Washing appears grey or not properly clean
-
 Grey - brown stains form on the washing
q
Excess use of detergent will result in 
- Higher environmental pollution
- Generation of too much foam
- 
Scale builds up
FABRIC CONDITIONER
q
Fill in the middle chamber of detergent dispenser tray marked
q Conditioner should be in liquid/solution form only (powders to be mixed 
in water.)
q
Fabric softner gives a soft feel and smooth surface to fabrics.
q
Enzymes help to remove stains of sweat, blood etc.
q
Enzymes , Bleaches and whiteness should not be used on wool.
TREATMENT OF STAINS
q Whitener gives ‘Whiteness to Whites clothes brightness to coloured clothes.
q Chlorine bleach is used for white clothes and oxygen bleach is used for 
coloured clothes.
q A strong bleaching agent is not recommended for direct use in the washing 
machine.
q Extremely dirty areas in clothes can be preteated with bleach and then be loaded 
in the machine for a regular wash.
q Stains need to be treated immediately when they are fresh. Usually stains 
are categorised as absorbed stains, built-up stains, and compound stains.
q Absorbed stains can be removed by rubbing gently a pad containing a 
suitable solvent over the stain from outer edge towards centre by 
keeping stained cloth on absorbent fabric.
q Built up and compound stains may be removed by first carefully 
brushing off stained area. Then rub gently with a pad containing solvent 
from the back of fabric.
q
It is advisable to try out the solvent on hidden part of the garment to verify its 
effect on cloth.
