How to wash correctly

Brief guide

The headings numbered (A,B,C,...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide.

Before washing

ASort the laundry.

^Empty all pockets.

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.) can cause dam- age to textiles and components in the machine.

Most garments have a textile care label in the collar or side seam. Sort the washing by care label symbols. (See "Programmes - Care symbols" for their explanation).

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

Delicate textiles should be washed sep- arately in a delicates programme (use a washing bag where appropriate).

Do not wash any items in this machine which are specified by the manufac- turer as non-machine washable on the care label. (h symbol)

Pre-treat the laundry

Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and cuffs, and water soluble stains can be pre-treated with bar soap, liquid deter- gent or detergent mixed into a solution or paste.

With particularly stubborn stains ask your dry cleaner for advice. Do not used solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine.

–Curtains:

Remove lead weights and strips 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 to prevent smaller items rolling up inside them.
