Textile care symbols

The textile care symbols on clothing in- dicate the maximum temperature at which the clothing should be washed and are a good guideline when choos- ing a programme. In choosing a pro- gramme, it can be taken into account that front-loading machines are gentler on clothing than most top-loading, verti- cal tub machines.
