Preparing the Laundry
The headings numbered (
1,2,3,...)
show the operating sequence and can
be used as a brief guide.
Before washing
1 Prepare the wash load
Empty all pockets.
Foreign objects inadvertently left in
pockets (e.g. nails, coins, paper
clips, etc.) can cause damage to
clothes and the machine. Damage
to the machine can occur if wires
from underwire bras come loose.
Do not wash underwire bras in the
machine without ensuring that wires
are secure.
Sort the laundry
Most garments have a textile care label
in the collar or side seam. Sort the
laundry by care label and color.
Only wash items that are labeled ma-
chine washable by the manufacturer.
Dark fabrics often contain “excess dye”
and should be washed separately sev-
eral times before being included in a
mixed load.
Delicate fabrics should be washed sep-
arately using a delicates programme.
Only wash wool or wool mixtures if they
are labeled machine washable on the
textile care label.
Pre-treat the laundry
Badly soiled areas (e.g. collars and
cuffs) and water soluble stains can be
pre-treated with bar soap, stain
remover, or detergent mixed into a solu-
tion or paste.
Do not use detergents containing sol-
vents in the machine.
