To prepare the laundry

Foreign objects (e.g. coins, paperclips,
needles, nails) may damage laundry
items or washing machine components
(the drum for example).
• Empty the pockets of the laundry items.
• Brush sand out of pockets and
cuffs/turn-ups.
• Close zips, fasten pillow cases/cushion
covers.
• Remove curtain runners or tie up in
a net/bag.
• In a net/cushion cover, wash:
- delicates e.g. pantyhose, curtains
- small laundry items, e.g. socks or
handkerchiefs
- underwired bras (underwires may
become detached during washing and
cause damage).
• Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles,
e.g. jersey garments, T-shirts or
sweatshirts, should be turned inside out.
