11. HINTS AND TIPS
11.1 The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that
are on the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash white and coloured items
together.
• Some coloured items can discolour
with the first wash. We recommend
that you wash them separately for the
first times.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with painted illustrations inside
out.
• Remove hard stains with a special
detergent.
• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains
before putting items in drum
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove
the hooks and put the curtains in a
washing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash laundry without hems or
with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash
small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
