which detergent to use
• For woolen items, use a mild liquid detergent. Other detergents may damage your woolen

• With wool or silk, you may need to use an extra rinse cycle to remove excess detergent from
your clothes. This depends on the amount of detergent you use, and the amount of foam that
develops in the main wash cycle.
