HINTS AND TIPS

RULES FOR SEPARATING LAUNDRY

•  Fabric type / indications on label (cotton, mixed fibres, 

synthetic, wool, handwash items)

•  Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash 

new coloured items separately)

•  Size (wash items of different sizes in the same load to 

improve washing efficacy and weight distribution in the 

drum)

•  Delicates (place small items – such as nylon stockings – 

and garments with clasps – such as braziers – in a laundry 

bag or in a pillow case with a zip) .

WASH SYMBOLS ON GARMENT LABELS

The value given in the tub symbol is the maximum 

temperature possible for washing the garment .

  Normal mechanical action
  Reduced mechanical action
  Much reduced mechanical action
  Hand wash only
  Do not wash

CLEAN THE WATER FILTER REGULARLY

•  This is needed to prevent the filter from blocking and 

preventing the water from draining correctly .

SAVING ENERGY AND PROTECTING THE 

ENVIRONMENT

•  Keeping within the load limits indicated in the 

“PROGRAMM CHART” will optimise energy, water and 

detergent consumption and reduce washing times .

•  Do not exceed the detergent quantities recommended by 

the detergent manufacturer .

•  Save energy by using a 60 °C instead of a 90 °C wash 

programme, or by using a 40 °C instead of a 60 °C wash 

programme . We recommend using the “  Cotton” 

  the 

60 °C programme for cotton garments, which is longer, 

but uses less energy .

•  To save energy and time when washing, select highest 

spin speed available for the programme to reduce the 

residual water remaining in the garments at the end of the 

wash cycle .

•  Pretreat any stains with an appropriate stain remover, 

or else dampen any dried-on stains with water prior 

to washing, as this will reduce the need to use a high 

temperature wash programme .

•  Use the “Colours 15°” programme for lightly soiled 

coloured garments; this will reduce the amount of energy 

used to heat the water .
