Wash cycles
Your CleanSmart™ washer has a number of wash cycles to suit your laundering needs. Selecting the most appropriate cycle for each particular wash load will help ensure you get the best possible wash result.
Wash cycles explained
|
Regular |
Regular – High Efficiency On For normally soiled everyday cotton loads, eg t-shirts, shorts, shirts. |
|
Regular – High Efficiency Off For everyday loads where extra water is an advantage. For example when the load is linty, sandy, or dye run is possible. |

The ‘Bulky’ cycle takes special care of bulky items. Bulky garments and bedding wash most effectively when they can move freely. Ensure that there is sufficient room in the bowl for the load to move during the wash.
When washing a single bulky item add a large beach towel to the wash, to ensure the load is balanced for an effective spin.
We recommend that you do not wash woollen duvet / doona inners, or any other item marked “dry clean only” in your CleanSmart™ washer.

Allergy |
Allergy – High Efficiency On Recommended cycle for asthma sufferers and people with skin sensitivities. |
|
Allergy – High Efficiency Off Recommended for situations when a little more water is required. |

Cleaning the inside of your washer regularly is important. Your washer will remind you to complete a ‘Bowl Clean’ cycle every 100 cycles (the ‘Bowl Clean’ cycle icon will flash to alert you) or we recommend you complete this cycle 5 – 6 times a year (refer to the ‘Caring for your washer’ section).
|

Towels – High Efficiency On Recommended for washing lightly soiled towels and when you want to save water. |
|
Towels – High Efficiency Off Recommended cycle for everyday washing of towels, new towels that may release dye during the wash, and after a day at the beach. |

If you wish to change any of the wash options while your CleanSmart™ washer is running, touch 
then select the required option.
* Refers to the agitation time in the ‘wash’ part of the cycle, not the total time taken to complete a cycle. In addition, the actual wash time depends largely on the size of your wash load, therefore can vary by a number of minutes.
