WASHING
21
1. Prepare the laundry
Empty all pockets.
Damage due to foreign objects.
Nails, coins, paper clips, etc. can
cause damage to garments and
components inside the machine.
Check laundry before washing and
remove any foreign objects.
Sort the laundry
Sort the laundry by colour and by
care label. Most garments have a tex-
tile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Tip: Dark textiles often contain excess
dye and should be washed separately
several times before being included in a
mixed load. Always wash whites and
colours separately.
Pre-treating stains
Badly soiled areas and stains should
be cleaned as soon as possible,
preferably whilst still fresh. Stains
should be carefully dabbed off using
a soft, colourfast cloth. Do not rub.
Damage due to solvent-based
cleaning agents.
Cleaning agents containing benzine,
stain remover, etc. can damage
plastic parts.
When pre-treating textiles, make sure
that plastic parts do not come into
contact with the cleaning agent.
Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based cleaning agents.
If solvent-based cleaning agents are
used, an explosive mixture can form.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in the washer-dryer.
General tips
