Cautions
The rated washing/spinning capacity
refers to the largest dry weight of a load
that can be washed/spun.
The thickness, size and type of clothes
will influence the actual capacity. Be
careful to only load a reasonable amount
of laundry.
Do not select "Maximum" water level for
clothes less than 2.4kg, to avoid splashing
of water.
It is suggested not to use high sudsing
detergent. Choose a low suds or high
efficiency detergent.
Usage of the detergent
How to use whitener
Adding the washing powder
Dissolve in the machine:
1.Fill small quantity of water.
2.Add the powder. Run for 30
seconds to dissolve it completely.
3.Put in the laundry. Select a
suitable water level.
Instant dissolving of the washing
powder:
Fill water to desired level.
Dilute the whitener in a
container. Pour it slowly
into the washing tub.
Avoid using whitener on
laundry with color or
pattern as they are prone
to lose color.
The whitener shall not
touch the laundry
directly.
1.Prepare warm water of 30 C in a
container.
2.Add the powder while stirring to fully
dissolve it.
Powder is more likely to contaminate
the laundry with residue than a liquid
detergent. Therefore please use the
correct quantity.
Please refer to the washing powder
instructions for the correct use and
dosage.
Refer to the whitener
instructions for the
usage and quantity.
For powder whitener,
please dissolve it before
using.
