Washing hints

Sorting the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment
label and the manufacturer’s washing instructions.
Sort the laundry as follows:
whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.

Temperatures

90°

for normally soiled white cottons and linen
(e.g. tea cloths, towels, tablecloths,
sheets...)

60°

for normally soiled, colour fast garments
(e.g. shirts, night dresses, pyjamas....) in
linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for
lightly soiled white cotton (e.g.
underwear).

(cold)

for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed

30°-40°

laundry including synthetic fibres and
woollens. 
The wool wash cycle of this machine has
been approved by Woolmark for the
washing of machine washable Woolmark
products provided that the garments are
washed according to the instructions on
the garment label and those issued by the
manufacturer of this washing machine.
Licence No. M9604.

Before loading the laundry

Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites
may lose their “whiteness” in the wash.

New coloured items may run in the first wash; they
should therefore be washed separately the first time.

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the
laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks
and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing. Rub
particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or
detergent paste.

Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or
tie them up in a bag or net.

Maximum loads

Recommended loads are indicated in the
programme charts.

General rules:

Cotton, linen

: drum full but not too tightly packed;

Synthetics

: drum no more than half full;

Delicate fabrics and woollens

: drum no more than

one third full.

Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient
use of water and energy.

For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water
and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them
prior to washing.

Blood

: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried

stains, soak overnight in water with a special
detergent then rub in the soap and water.

Oil based paint

: moisten with benzine stain

remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the
stain; treat several times.

Dried grease stains

: moisten with turpentine, lay

the garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with
the fingertips and a cotton cloth.

Rust

: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust

removing product used cold. Be careful with rust
stains which are not recent since the cellulose
structure will already have been damaged and the
fabric tends to hole.

Mould stains

: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites

and fast coloureds only).

Grass

: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and

fast coloureds only).
