4.5.2 Preparing laundry for washing

• Laundry items with metal attachments such as, underwiring, belt buckles or metal
buttons will damage the product. Remove the metal pieces or wash such clothes
by putting them in a laundry bag or pillow case.
• Take out all substances in the pockets such as coins, pens and paper clips, and
turn pockets inside out and brush. Such objects may damage the product or
cause noise problem.
• Put small size clothes such as infant's socks and nylon stockings in a laundry bag
or pillow case.
• Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove curtain attachment items.
• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and tears.
• Wash "Machine washable" or "Hand washable" labeled products only with an
appropriate programme.
• Do not wash colours and whites together. New, dark coloured cottons release a
lot of dye. Wash them separately.
• Tough stains must be treated properly before washing. If unsure, check with a
dry cleaner.
• Only use the dyes / color changers and descaling agents which are appropriate
for machine wash. Always follow the instructions on the package.
• Wash trousers and delicate laundry turned inside out.
• Keep laundry items made of Angora wool in the freezer for a few hours before
washing. This will reduce pilling.
• Laundry that are subjected to materials such as flour, lime dust, milk powder,
etc. intensely must be shaken off before placing into the product. Such dusts and
powders on the laundry may build up on the inner parts of the product in time
and can cause damage.
