Preparing and sorting washing

Preparing washing

Empty the pockets. Remove foreign bodies (e.g. coins, paper clips, nails, etc.).

Do up zips, button up covers to prevent damage to washing.

Remove the runners from net curtains or cover them with a net or a bag.

Wash delicate and small items in a net/pillowcase, e. g. net curtains, tights, small socks, handkerchiefs, bras.

Important: Bras and other items containing wires should only be washed in a net bag. The wires can work loose and damage the appli- ance.

Sorting washing

By colour: Wash white and coloured washing separately. Washing can run.

By temperature, type of washing and care symbol.

Important: Do not wash fabrics with the Gcare symbol (= do not wash!) in the washing machine.
