1. Notes on correct laundry care

Drying
Useful tip: See the "Programme chart".
It lists all programmes and their
maximum load.
- Always observe the maximum
recommended load for each
programme. This will mean that the
energy consumption for the amount
of laundry is the most economical.
- Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink,
depending on the quality of the item.
Only use the Woollens handcare
programme for these textiles.
- Pure linen should only be tumble
dried if it is specified as suitable on
the care label. The surface of the
fabric may otherwise become rough.
Only use the Woollens handcare
programme for these textiles.
- Woollens and wool blends are
susceptible to becoming matted or
shrinking. Only use the Woollens
handcare programme for these
textiles.
- Loopknit garments (e.g. T-Shirts,
underwear) have a tendency to shrink
after the first wash. Do not overdry
these fabrics to prevent further
shrinking. When buying loopknit
garments, it is advisable to take their
shrinkage potential into account.
- With fabrics that are particularly heat-
sensitive or susceptible to creasing,
reduce the drying load and select
Gentle tumble.

for light cotton or jersey textiles.

to iron the laundry after drying.

levels (damper or drier) for the Cottons
and Minimum iron programmes. See
