   • Best For: Synthetic fabrics like polyester and blends.

Tips for Choosing the Right Program
 

1. Read the Labels: Always check the care labels on your clothes for the manufacturer’s recommended washing instructions. This will help you choose the appropriate washing program and temperature.
   
   
2. Sort Your Laundry: Sort your laundry by fabric type, color, and soil level before washing. This prevents color bleeding and ensures that each load gets the appropriate care.
   
   
3. Use the Right Detergent: Choose a detergent that is suitable for the type of fabric and the washing program you are using. For example, use a gentle detergent for delicates and a heavy-duty detergent for heavily soiled items.
   
   
4. Adjust Spin Speed: Adjust the spin speed according to the fabric type to prevent damage. Higher spin speeds are suitable for durable fabrics, while lower speeds are better for delicate items.
