Follow the wash code symbols on each
garment label and the manufacturer’s
washing instructions. Sort the laundry
as follows: whites, coloureds,
synthetics, delicates, woollens.
Never wash whites and coloureds
together. Whites may lose their
“whiteness” in the wash.
New coloured items may run in the first
wash; they should therefore be washed
separately the first time.
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasten-
ers, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or
long tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a
special detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care. Remove
hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.
Recommended loads are indicated in
the programme charts.General rules:
Washing a maximum load makes the
most efficient use of water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the
load size.
Cotton, linen:
drum full but not too
tightly packed;
Synthetics:
drum no more than
half full;
Delicate
fabrics and
woollens:
drum no more than
one third full.
Make sure that no metal objects are
left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips,
safety pins, pins).
