Preparing the wash cycle

Sorting out the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s

washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics,

delicates, woollens.

Temperatures

Before loading the laundry

Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their “whiteness” in

the wash.

New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed

separately the first time.

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips,

safety pins, pins).

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or

long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing.

Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.

Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.

Maximum loads

Recommended loads are indicated in the washing programme charts.

General rules:

Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;

Synthetics: drum no more than half full

;

Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more than one third full.

Preparing the wash cycle

dresses, pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and

for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g. underwear).
