How to wash correctly

Brief instructions

The headings numbered ￿, ￿, ￿, . . .

show the operating sequence and can be used as brief instructions.

￿Sort the laundry

￿Empty all pockets.

￿Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause damage to garments and components in the machine.

￿Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be cleaned as soon as possible, preferably whilst still fresh. Spillages should be carefully dabbed off using a soft colourfast cloth. Do not rub!

Badly soiled areas can be pre-treated with liquid detergent, stain removers etc. first, following the manufacturer's instructions. With particularly stubborn stains ask your dry cleaner for advice.

￿If you use a solvent-based clean- ing agent (e.g. one containing ben- zene) to pre-treat a stain, make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) are protected, and that the cleaning agent is rinsed off before washing the garment in the machine.

￿Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine.

￿Sort the laundry by colour and by care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam.

Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times before being included in a mixed load. Always wash whites and coloureds separately.

Curtains: Remove lead weights first or place in a laundry bag.

Underwiring and collar stiffeners: Any loose wiring in bras, shirt collar stiffeners, etc. should be removed or sewn in.

Knitted garments, trousers and jeans, T-shirts and sweat shirts: Turn inside out, if recommended by the manufacturer.

Close any zips, fasten hooks and eyes etc before washing.

Fasten duvet covers etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.

Do not wash any items in this machine which are specified by the manufacturer as not washable on the care label. (￿ symbol)
