buttons will damage the machine. Remove the
metal pieces or wash such clothes by putting
them in a cotton laundry bag or cotton pillow
case. Also these type of clothes can heat
too much during drying and damage your
other clothes. Do not dry such laundry in the
machine.

and nylon stockings in cotton a laundry bag or
cotton pillow case.
• Place curtains in without compressing them.
Remove curtain attachment items. Do not dry
tulle curtains in your machine.
• Fasten zips, sew loose buttons and mend rips
and tears.
• Wash "machine washable" or "hand
washable" labelled products only with an
appropriate programme. Dry these type of
clothes by hanging or laying down. Do not dry
them in the machine.

New, dark coloured cottons release a lot of
dye. Wash them separately.
