1. Notes on correct laundry care

Points to note regarding
washed laundry
– When washing very heavily soiled
items, ensure that you use sufficient
detergent and select a high
temperature. If in doubt, wash the
items several times.
– Do not put soaking wet items into the
tumble dryer. Make sure your laundry
is thoroughly spun before drying. The
higher the spin speed, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying.
– New dark coloured garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light coloured garments to avoid the
danger of colours running and
discolouring other garments or even
plastic components in the dryer. Dark
coloured fibres can also settle on
light coloured garments and vice
versa.
– Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. To achieve the usual
finish, double the amount of starch
should be used.
Preparing the laundry before
drying

Make sure that any objects, e.g.
detergent dosing balls, lighters etc.
have been removed from the
laundry.
They could melt or explode and
cause damage to the tumble dryer or
the laundry.

See "Warning and Safety"
instructions for further information.
Loading or using the tumble dryer
incorrectly could cause a fire.
– Sort the laundry according to the
type of fibre and weave, size,
garment care label symbol and the
drying level required.
– Check the seams of padded or
down-filled items to prevent the risk
of fillings coming out. These could
catch fire when being dried.
– Disentangle the laundry.
– Tie together textile belts and apron
ties.
– Fasten . . .
. . . duvet covers and pillow cases to
prevent small items from being
trapped inside them.
. . . hooks and eyes.
– Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
– Leave jackets open and undo any
long zips so that textiles dry evenly.
– Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease
more, the greater the load. This is
also the case for garments made
from very fine weave fabric, such as
shirts or blouses. If necessary,
reduce the size of the load for these
types of fabric.
