Here are some tips that may help you before
washing.
Sorting your laundry
Sort items according to:
• how soiled they are
• colour
• material
Clothing
• Do up zips so that they don’t harm fabrics.
• New coloured 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 labels
Look at the item's laundry label. The table
below shows recommended wash programs
for different materials and wash loads. With
an ASKO washer in conjunction with modern
day detergents, it is a good idea to trial and
error to find out what produces the best
results.
