not only safe use of the appliance but also its best performance.
- Insert the garments, arranging the lighter garments such as underwear,
foulards and scarves in the central part of the drum.
- Arrange the clothing evenly and uniformly, respecting the symmetry of the
drum and without piling them up in any one spot.
- Spread the clothes out, particularly in the case of modest loads, so that the

wet clothing.
