• TEXTILE CARE CODES

3 / PREPARING YOUR LAUNDRY AND YOUR APPLIANCE

Tip :

To help you care for your textiles, they have a label giving the necessary information.

They are expressed in codes by the symbols below:

Important :

Before the first wash, we recommend running a "COTTON 90° without pre-

wash" cycle without load, using 1/2 the usual detergent quantity. This will eliminate any

manufacturing residue that may be left in the machine.

• TREATING STUBBORN STAINS

Tip :

Perspiration, blood, fruit, wine and cho-

colate stains generally come out with biologi-
cal detergents, but other stains require speci-
fic treatment before machine washing. First
conduct a test on an inconspicuous part of
the textile and rinse thoroughly. If you use a
stain remover, always start on the outside of
the stain to prevent ring marks.

CANDLE WAX:

remove the excess of the stain

by scraping. Then place absorbent paper on
either side of the fabric and run a warm iron
over the stain to melt the remaining wax.

COFFEE - TEA:

- on white cotton: blot the stain using hydrogen
peroxide* before normal washing
- on coloured cotton: blot the stain using a
vinegar/water solution (2 tbsp white vinegar
for 1/4 litre of water) before normal washing
- on wool: blot the stain using a combination of
equal parts alcohol* and white vinegar before
washing the item.

SLUDGE - TAR:

use Eau Écarlate* stain remo-

ver or otherwise, spread a little butter on the
stain, leave to penetrate then blot with turpen-
tine* spirits.

CHEWING-GUM:

chill it using an ice cube. As

soon as it is hard enough, scratch it with your
nail. Remove the remaining ring using a
degreasing agent*.

CHOCOLATE - FRUIT - FRUIT JUICE - WINE:

blot the stain using a vinegar/water solution (2
tbsp white vinegar for 1/4 litre of water). Rinse
well and wash normally.

BALLPOINT PEN - MARKER PEN:

remove as

much ink as possible by blotting the stain with
absorbent paper. Place a clean cloth behind
the stain and blot the stain using another cloth
soaked in white vinegar for synthetic and artifi-
cial fibres or 90* alcohol for other fibres (if the
textile allows).

GREASE:

immediately sprinkle the fabric with

talc. Leave to dry and brush gently to remove
the talc. Then blot using a degreasing agent
such as mineral spirits*. Rinse and wash nor-
mally.

GRASS:

blot the stain using white vinegar or

90* alcohol (if the textile allows) then rinse
and wash.

KETCHUP - TOMATO SAUCE:

prepare a solu-

tion with one part glycerine for one part hot
water. Let the item soak for an hour, then
wash normally.

PAINT:

do not let paint spots dry. Treat them

immediately with the solvent indicated on the
paint pot (water, turpentine*, white spirit*).
Soap then rinse.

MAKE-UP:

place the stained side of the fabric

on absorbent paper, then dampen the other
side of the fabric with 90* alcohol if the item
allows and if the stain is not greasy.
Otherwise, use a degreasing agent (such as
trichloroethylene*).

RUST:

for slight stains, cover with salt,

squeeze lemon juice on the salt and leave
overnight; then rinse thoroughly and wash.
For heavier stains, use a rust removal product
and follow the manufacturer's instructions
carefully.

BLOOD:

soak the stained item as promptly as

possible in cold salty water, then wash nor-
mally.

•Use of stain removers

Important :

To avoid risk of fire and explosion:

(*) if you use the products recommended in
the recipes above, take care to rinse your
laundry thoroughly before placing it in your
machine
- if you use commercial stain removers, fol-
low the manufacturer's recommendations
carefully.
We remind you that, generally speaking,
stains that are treated promptly are easier to
remove. However, old stains that have been
ironed or dried in tumble dryers cannot be
removed.
