Prepare the laundry
Caution!
Damage to the appliance/fabrics
Foreign objects (e.g. coins, paperclips,
needles, nails) may damage the laundry
or components in the washing machine.
You should therefore note the following
tips when preparing your laundry:
■ Empty any pockets.
■ Look out for metal items (paperclips,
etc.) and remove them.
■ Wash delicates in a laundry bag
(tights, underwired bras, etc.).
■ Close any zips; button up any cover
buttons.
■ Brush sand out of pockets and
collars.
■ Remove curtain fittings or place
curtains in a laundry bag.
Sorting laundry
Sort your laundry according to the care
instructions and manufacturer's
information on the care labels,
depending on:
■ Type of fabric/fibre
■ Colour
Note: Laundry may discolour. Wash
white and coloured items separately.
Wash new coloured items separately
the first time you wash them.
■ Soiling
Wash laundry with the same level of
soiling together.
Some examples of soiling levels can
be found on ~ Page 28
– Light: Do not prewash, select the
SpeedPerfect G setting if
necessary
– Normal
– Heavy: Load less laundry, select
a programme with prewash
– Stains: Remove/pretreat stains
while they are fresh. Firstly, dab
with soapy water; do not rub.
Then wash the items of laundry
with the appropriate programme.
Stubborn or dried-in stains can
sometimes only be removed by
washing several times.
■ Symbols on the care labels
Note: The numbers in the symbols
indicate the maximum washing
temperature that may be used.
