䡲
Wash white and coloured textiles separately.
䡲
Empty pockets and turn inside out. Remove any foreign objects (coins,
nails, paper clips, etc.).
䡲
Empty and brush out pockets of work overalls worn in the metal industry
(metal shavings can damage the washing and cause rust stains).
䡲
Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases; close zips and hook and eye fasten-
ers; fasten cloth belts and apron ties.
䡲
Wash smaller items (e.g. nylon tights, belts) and items with zips and hooks
in a washing net or cushion cover.
䡲
Remove stains before washing using a suitable stain remover.
䡲
Pre-treat heavily soiled areas (collars, cuffs, etc.) with soap, special deter-
gent or paste.
䡲
For heavily soiled washing, select the additional pre-wash
programme
or change the degree of soiling to «heavy» or «very heavy».
䡲
Wash woollens and other textiles with the
fabric care label using the
main hand wash
programme or WetClean
and detergent suitable
for woollens and delicates.
