Attention!
• Do not wash unhemmed or torn garments as they may fray.
• Foreign bodies may damage garments or machine components. Therefore, empty all pockets and turn them
inside out, remove rollers from curtains or put them in a string bag.
• Put very small articles (belts, handkerchiefs, socks, bras with stiffeners, etc.) into a white canvas bag. Close
push buttons and zips and sew on dangling buttons.
• Modern detergents and correct washing temperatures are generally sufficient to remove stains from fabrics.
However, some stubborn stains, such as grass, fruit, egg, blood, rust and biro, should be pre-treated before
washing. Depending on the type of fabric, many stain removers can be found in the shops. Stains
should always be cleaned or diluted immediately as the older they get, the more difficult they are to
remove.
• Garments may be damaged if fabric care symbols are not observed.
Wool – Only pure wool, identified by or with the label <<shrink-proof machine washable and dryable>> can
be machine washed with the specific programme, other types of wool should be hand-washed or dry-cleaned.
