American Standard washing machine usage and precautions: 1. Classify the fabrics before washing to avoid affecting the test results 2. Add detergent to the bottom of the enamel liner (select different detergent types and dosages according to different test standards) 3. Add test fabrics (Remember not to exceed the maximum load) 4. Select the program (please choose different test programs according to different test standards) 5. Select the load (small, medium, large, super large four options) 6. Select the washing temperature (different samples Type to choose different washing temperature, please refer to the corresponding AATCC standard test method for details) 7. Press the Start knob to start the washing process. (Because the system automatically checks the load balance, there will be a 2-3 minute delay in water injection, which is normal) American Standard washing machine maintenance: 1. Regularly replace the water inlet pipe 2. Select the appropriate amount of detergent according to the standard, do not use excessive detergent 3. Appropriately use warm water and hot water, not only cold water 4. Keep the lid open between uses to keep the washing machine dry inside and outside 5. Please clean the washing machine after use to extend its service life Article Source: (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.
