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 load the drum with items that are still soaking wet. Make sure your laundry is spun at the maximum spin speed before drying. The higher the spin speed, the greater the savings that can be made in energy and time during drying. - New dark colored garments should be washed and dried separately from light colored garments. There is the risk of colors running and discoloring other garments or even plastic components in the dryer. Dark colored fibers can also settle on light colored garments and vice versa. - Starched laundry can be tumble dried. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used. Preparing the laundry before drying  Damage due to foreign objects which were not removed from the laundry. Foreign objects can melt, burn, or explode. Ensure that any foreign objects (e.g., detergent dispensing balls, lighters, etc.) have been removed from the laundry.  Risk of fire due to incorrect use and operation. The laundry can burn and destroy the dryer and the surroundings. Read and observe "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS". - Sort the laundry according to the type of fiber and weave, size, garment care label symbol, and the drying level required. - Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact. This way you will avoid the danger of fillings coming out. These could catch fire when being dried. - Untangle the laundry. - Tie together textile belts and apron ties. - Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them. - Fasten hooks and eyes. - Leave jackets open and undo any long zippers so that textiles dry evenly. - Sew in or remove underwiring from bras. - If necessary, reduce the size of the load for these types of fabric. Easy care fabric tends to crease more, the larger the load. This is particularly the case for garments made from very fine weave fabric, such as dress shirts or blouses. 24

Points to note regarding
washed laundry
-
When washing very heavily soiled
items, ensure that you use sufficient
detergent and select a high tempera-
ture. If in doubt, wash the items sev-
eral times.
-
Do not load the drum with items that
are still soaking wet. Make sure your
laundry is spun at the maximum spin
speed before drying. The higher the
spin speed, the greater the savings
that can be made in energy and time
during drying.
-
New dark colored garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light colored garments. There is the
risk of colors running and discoloring
other garments or even plastic com-
ponents in the dryer. Dark colored
fibers can also settle on light colored
garments and vice versa.
-
Starched laundry can be tumble
dried. To achieve the usual finish,
double the amount of starch should
be used.
Preparing the laundry before
drying
Damage due to foreign objects
which were not removed from the
laundry.
Foreign objects can melt, burn, or
explode.
Ensure that any foreign objects (e.g.,
detergent dispensing balls, lighters,
etc.) have been removed from the
laundry.
Risk of fire due to incorrect use
and operation.
The laundry can burn and destroy
the dryer and the surroundings.
Read and observe “IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
-
Sort the laundry according to the type
of fiber and weave, size, garment
care label symbol, and the drying
level required.
-
Check seams and stitching to ensure
that padding and linings are intact.
This way you will avoid the danger of
fillings coming out. These could catch
fire when being dried.
-
Untangle the laundry.
-
Tie together textile belts and apron
ties.
-
Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases
to prevent small items from being
rolled up inside them.
-
Fasten hooks and eyes.
-
Leave jackets open and undo any
long zippers so that textiles dry
evenly.
-
Sew in or remove underwiring from
bras.
-
If necessary, reduce the size of the
load for these types of fabric. Easy
care fabric tends to crease more, the
larger the load. This is particularly the
case for garments made from very
fine weave fabric, such as dress
shirts or blouses.
