• Capacity: The machine's capacity should be appropriate for the test sample size.
• Water temperature: Specific temperatures are defined for different test methods.
• Detergent and additives: The types and quantities of detergents and other chemicals are specified.
• Washing time and cycle: The duration and conditions of the washing process are outlined.
