1. Notes on correct laundry care
28
Washing
– Wash heavily soiled laundry
thoroughly. Ensure that you use
sufficient detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
– New, coloured items should be washed
thoroughly and separately. Do not dry
these garments together with light
coloured garments. There is the risk of
colours running and discolouring other
garments or even plastic components
in the tumble dryer. Dark coloured fluff
can also settle on light coloured
garments and vice versa.
Drying
Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the
laundry.
Foreign objects can melt, burn, or
explode.
Ensure that any foreign objects (e.g.
detergent dispensing balls, lighters,
etc.) have been removed from the
laundry.
Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation.
The laundry can burn and destroy
the dryer and the surroundings.
See “Warning and Safety
instructions” for further information.
– Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact. This
way you can prevent fillings from falling
out, which could create a fire hazard.
– Sew in or remove loosened
underwiring from bras.
