Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins, paper, clips, etc.) can cause damage to garments and to the
components in the machine.
Check the laundry before washing and remove foreign objects.
S O RT T H E L AU N D RY
Sort the laundry by colour and care label. Most garments have a textile care label in the collar
or side seam.
TIP:
Dark textiles often contain excess dye and should be washed separately several times before
being included in a mixed load. Always wash whites and colours separately.
P R E - T R E AT S TA I N S
Badly soiled areas, stains etc. should be cleaned as soon as possible, preferably whilst still
fresh. Spillages should be carefully dabbed off using a soft, colour fast cloth. Do not rub.
TIP:
Badly soiled areas can be pretreated with a liquid detergent, stain removers etc. first, following
the manufacturer’s instructions. With particularly stubborn stains ask your dry cleaner
for advice.
Solvent-based cleaners (e.g. benzine) can damage plastic parts. When pre-treating garments,
make sure that any plastic parts (e.g. buttons) are protected from cleaning agent.
Chemical (solvent-based) cleaning agents can cause severe damage to the washing machine.
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents in the machine.
