Loading Clothes into the Washing Drum
The first step in correctly using the Electrolux washing machine is to carefully load clothes into the washing drum. Gently open the washing machine door, avoiding slamming it too hard to prevent any potential damage.
Before placing clothes into the washing drum, meticulously check the garments for any items left in pockets. Secure buttons and zippers tightly. When putting clothes into the washing machine, avoid cramming everything in at once. Patience is key—add each piece one by one. Complete the step of loading clothes into the washing drum by securely closing the machine door, ensuring nothing gets trapped between the seal and the door.
