HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing in- structions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.
Temperatures
95° or 90° |
| for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, |
| tablecloths, sheets...) | |
|
| |
|
|
|
60°/50° |
| for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses, |
| pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled | |
|
| white cotton (e.g. underwear) |
|
|
|
| for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including syn- | |
| thetic fibres and woollens bearing the label «pure new wool, ma- | |
|
| chine washable, |
|
|
|
Before loading the laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the wash. New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time.
Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins). Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes. Remove persistent stains before washing.
