1. Preparing the laundry


Damage due to foreign objects.
Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,
paper clips etc.) can cause damage
to garments and to components in
the machine.
Check the mops or the laundry
before washing and remove any
foreign objects.

Damage due to solvent-based
cleaning agents.
Cleaning agents containing benzine,
stain remover, etc., can damage
plastic parts.
When pre-treating garments, make
sure that any plastic parts (e.g.
buttons) do not come into contact
with cleaning agent.

Risk of explosion due to solvent-
based cleaning agents.
When using solvent-based
detergents, an explosive mixture may
develop.
Never use solvent-based cleaning
agents in the washing machine.

Sorting the washing items
 Separate the mops, cleaning cloths
and pads.
 Shake mops, cleaning cloths and
pads out well to get rid of coarse
soiling before placing them in the
drum.
Sorting the laundry
 Empty all pockets.
 Clean badly soiled areas and stains
on the textiles before washing.
Spillages should be carefully dabbed
off using a soft, colourfast cloth.
 Sort the laundry by colour and by
care label. Most garments have a
textile care label in the collar or side
seam.
Useful tip: Do not wash items which
are specified by the manufacturer as
not washable on the care label
( symbol).
