Preparation of clothes
CAUTION
Do not wash any items that are declared as non-
washable. Always follow the instructions on the
care label of your laundry.
Do not wash clothes soaked in petrol, thinners,
alcohol, or solvents.
Foreign objects (e. g. nails, coins) can cause
damage to garments and components.
Check the pockets of all garments on content and
empty them completely.
Sort your fabrics by color and the symbols con-
tained on the care label. Separate white and col-
ored laundry. All new colored clothes should be
washed separately.
Turn buttons and embroidery inside.
Close zippers, buttons and hooks before washing.
Tie any loose straps and loops.
Wash bras e. g. in a pillowcase to prevent leak-
age of the steel bracket.
Particularly delicate fabrics such as curtains, cro-
chet or small items (socks, handkerchiefs, neck-
ties, etc.) should be washed in a closed bag.
Remove always all the hooks from curtains.
Washing large and heavy parts such as bath tow-
els, jeans, lined jackets and the like can cause the
drum to run unbalanced. We recommend adding
one or two smaller parts; this especially helps with
the spinning cycle.
The clothes which easily get fuzzed shall be
washed separately; otherwise the other articles
can be stained with dust and thrum etc. Prefera-
bly, black clothes and cotton clothes shall be
washed separately because they can easily get
stained with the thrums of other colors when be-
ing washed together.
Clean away dusts, stains and pet hairs from the
clothes.
For spot removing heavy soiling the laundry can
be treated with a special prewash spray. Follow
the operating instructions of the product packag-
ing.
