Wash Care Symbols
Wash care labels inside garments recommend how to launder your clothes with the best results. The care labelling code is in line with care labelling used in the rest of Europe. The symbols used make it easy to select the correct programme on your washing machine.

Important Notes
For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for dispensing detergents and liquid additives.Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by pushing it in gently. This is particularly important if you are using fabric conditioner to avoid the conditioner entering the machine prematurely.
When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme, place the detergent into the correct compartment in the dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.
