Wash Care Symbols
Wash care labels inside garments recommend how to launder your clothes with the best results. The care
labelling code is in line with care labelling used in the rest of Europe. The symbols used make it easy to
select the correct programme on your washing machine.
For best results, always use the dispenser drawer
for dispensing detergents and liquid additives.
Once the dispenser has been filled, close it by
pushing it in gently. This is particularly important if
you are using fabric conditioner to avoid the
conditioner entering the machine prematurely.
When using liquid detergent and a prewash
programme, place the detergent into the correct
compartment in the dispenser drawer, after the
prewash has finished.
