Prearing and Sorting the Laundry
Preparing the laundry
Notice: Damage to the washer/fabric. Foreign objects (e.g. coins, paper-clips, needles, nails) may damage
the laundry or components in the washer.
Therefore, note the following tips when preparing your laundry:
Remove any loose items or metal objects, such as safety pins, paper clips, etc. from
•
the laundry.
Brush sand, coins, etc. out of pocket and cuffs.
•
Close zips and button up cushion covers, duvet covers, etc.
•
Remove curtain runners or secure them in a net bag.
•
Particularly delicate items: such as tights or lace curtains, or smaller items, such as
•
tiny socks or handkerchiefs, should only be washed in a net bag or pillowcase.
Some items are best turned inside out. These included knitwear, trousers, T-shirts
•
and sweatshirts.
Make sure that the wire-cup bras are machine washable.
•
Make sure that wire-cup bras in a pillowcase which can be securely closed with a
•
zip or button. If the wire works itself out of the cup it may fall through the holes of
the drum and cause extensive damage.
Sorting the laundry according to colour and degree of soiling
Sort laundry items according to colour, degree of soiling and recommended wash temperature range.
Items of clothing can become discoloured.
•
Never wash new muti-coloured items together with other items.
•
Wash white items separately from coloured items. Otherwise, white items may tend to become grey.
