3 Initial preparations for washing
Preparing clothes for washing
Laundry items with metal attachments such as, bras, belt buckles and metal buttons will damage the machine. Remove metal attachments or place the items in a clothing bag, pillow case, or something similar.
•Sort the laundry according to type of fabric, color, and degree of soiling and permissible water temperature. Always follow the advice on the garment labels.
•Place small items like infants’ socks and nylon stockings, etc. in a laundry bag, pillow case or something similar. This will also save your laundry from getting lost.
•Wash “machine washable” or “hand washable” labeled products only with an appropriate program.
•Do not wash colors and whites together. New, dark colored cottons may release a lot of dye. Wash them separately.
•Use only dyes/color changers and lime removers suitable for machine wash. Always follow the instructions on the packaging.
•Wash trousers and delicate clothes turned inside out.
