Prepare the Washing Cycle

Sort and Prepare the Washing

•Sort the washing according to care codes and type (see ”Washing
Types and Care Codes”).
•Empty pockets.
•Remove metal parts (paper clips, safety pins etc.).
•To prevent washing damage and washing snags: Close zip fasteners,
button closed bed covers and pillow cases, and tie together ribbons,
e.g. on aprons.
•Use clothing made of double-layer fabric (sleeping bag, anorak etc.).
•On knitted, coloured textiles and on wool and textiles with fitted
decorations: Turn inside out.
•Wash small and sensitive items (baby socks, stockings, tights, bras
etc.) in a washing net, a cushion with a zip fastener or in larger socks.
•Treat curtains with particular care. Remove small metal rollers or
small, burred rollers or tie them in a net or in a bag. We cannot
accept any liability for damage.
•Do not wash coloureds and whites together in one washing cycle.
Otherwise, whites will discolour or turn grey.
•New coloureds often contain surplus dye. It is best to wash such
items separately the first time.
•Mix small and large items of washing! This speeds up theeffect of
washing and the washing is more favourably distributed during spin-
ning.
•Loosen up the washing before loading it into the washing machine.
•Put the washing into the drum folded out.
•Pay attention to the care instructions ”Wash separately” and ”Wash
separately se veral times”!
