Maximum washing loads depending on the nature of the fibers
The quantity of washing added into the drum must not exceed the
maximum capacity of the machine. This capacity varies depending on
the nature of the textiles.
Wash smaller amounts if your washing is very dirty, and for absorbent
fabrics.
Maximum load
Not all textiles have the same volume and the same water retention
capacity.
This is why the drum may usually be filled:
- completely but without excessive pressure for cotton, linen, blend
washing,
- half full for treated cotton and synthetic fibers,
- about one third full for delicate articles such as net curtains and
woolens.
For blends, fill the drum as you would for the most delicate fibers.
