You are advised not to leave your laundry too long, especially

when damp. Damp laundry produces moult and unpleasant

smells.

Moult stains cannot be removed.

Sort your laundry.

Study carefully the chart in this booklet explaining the symbols

used on clothes labels (see page 6).

The following points are particularly important :

a line under the bowl means that the garment cannot be washed

using programmes for resistant fabrics such as cotton and

linen;

do not mix coloured garments with whites;

anticrease materials like polyester/cotton should be treated as

synthetics;

non-resistant fabrics like acrylic and most curtain materials

should be treated as delicate fabrics;

the wool programme is designed specifically for pure new wool.

Other types of wool and wool mixtures may shrink or felt if

machine-washed.

Woollen garments should be spun briefly immediately after

washing.

Prewash

Prewash is not normally necessary. Your new washing ma-

chine combined with modern detergents will give perfect

washing results without prewash, thus saving energy, time,

water and detergent.

However, when the laundry is particularly dirty (for instance if

you have to wash mechanics' overalls or butchers' aprons),

you are advised to use prewash with a biological detergent.

HINTS AND TIPS

Temperatures

We suggest that white cotton and linen, if it is not excessively

soiled, can be washed at 60° instead of 90°C. There should be

no reduction in performance, but there will be an energy saving

of approximately 30%.

The same applies to a lesser extent to fast coloured garments.

They usually require a temperature of 60°C but if they are not

excessively dirty, you will have satisfactory results at 40°C.

Garments with non-fast colours should not be washed at

temperatures above 40°C. If fast and non-fast colours are

washed together, they should be treated as non-fast colours

and therefore the temperature should not exceed 40°C.

Resistant white and coloured synthetics can normally be

washed at 60°C but also in this case 40°C is sufficient if the

laundry is not excessively dirty.

Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast colours and

woollen garments must never be washed above 40°C.

As you already know, your washing machine can also wash

with cold water. However, it must be remembered that the

detergents currently on the market have not been designed for

cold washes and that in winter, when the water is very cold,

they may not dissolve adequately.

We suggest the use of liquid detergents.

How much laundry can be washed in one load?

Strictly speaking you should always weigh your laundry.

The drum will take a maximum of 5 kg of cotton and linen. For

synthetics and delicate fabrics, the maximum load is 2,5 kg

and for wool, 1 kg.
