LG Washer W1119 - Manual (Page 7)

1. Prepare and sort the laundry
^ Empty all pockets.
,
Foreign objects left in pockets
(e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.)
can cause damage to clothes and
the machine.
^ Sort the laundry.
Only wash items in the machine that are
labeled machine washable by the
manufacturer. Most garments have a
fabric care label in the collar or side
seam. Sort the laundry by care label
and color.
^ Pretreat stains.
Tough stains (e.g. blood, egg, coffee,
tea, etc.) or badly soiled areas (e.g.
collars and cuffs) should be penetrated
with a stain remover or a paste made
from powdered detergent and warm
water.
,
Do not use chemical solvents in
the machine.
General tips
– Dark fabrics often bleed the first few
times they are washed. They should
be washed separately several times
before being included in a mixed
load.
– Remove any lead weights or strips
from curtains before washing.
– Loose underwires should be
removed or sewn in place before
washing.
– Woolens and knitted garments
should be turned inside out.
– Close zippers and hooks and eyes
before washing.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened in order to
prevent small items from rolling
inside of them.
Do not machine wash items if it is not
recommended on the fabric care label.
