Preparing for use
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 according to colour and the garment care label.
Badly soiled areas and stains should be cleaned as soon as pos-
sible. Stains should be carefully dabbed off using a soft, colourfast
cloth.
Damage due to solvent-based cleaning agents. Cleaning agents
containing benzine, stain remover, etc. can damage plastic parts.
When pre-treating items, 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 washing ma-
chine.
- Do not machine wash items which are specified by the manufac-
turer as not washable on the care label ().
- Curtains: remove rollers and lead weights or place in a laundry bag.
- Sew in or remove any loose underwiring in bras.
- Turn garments inside out, if recommended by the manufacturer.
- Close any zips and velcro fasteners before washing.
- Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from
becoming rolled up inside them.
- Please refer to the Programme chart for more tips and tricks.
