Advice and tips before washing Here are some tips that may help you before washing. Sorting your laundry Sort items according to: • How soiled they are • Color • Material Clothing • Close zippers so that they don't harm fabrics. • New colored items may contain excess dye and should therefore be washed separately the first few times. • Turn delicate items inside out. This reduces the risk of burling and fading. • Empty pockets and wash them inside out if possible! Laundry label symbols Laundry labels Material Laundry labels Look at the item's laundry label. The table below shows suitable wash programs for different materials and wash loads. Using modern washing machines and detergents, such as compact detergents, you can usually wash at lower temperatures. It is a good idea to use trial and error to find out what produces the best results. Program Load Cotton, linen, white, and light-colored items. Sanitary Extra Hot Full load Cotton, linen.
