Preparing and sorting washing

Preparing washing
• Empty the pockets. Remove foreign bodies (e.g. coins, paper clips,

nails, etc.).

• Do up zips, button up covers to prevent damage to washing.
• Remove the runners from net curtains or cover them with a net or a

bag.

• Wash delicate and small items in a net/pillowcase, e. g. net curtains,

tights, small socks, handkerchiefs, bras.

Important: Bras and other items containing wires should only be
washed in a net bag. The wires can work loose and damage the appli-
ance.

Sorting washing
• By colour: Wash white and coloured washing separately. Washing can

run.

• By temperature, type of washing and care symbol.
Important: Do not wash fabrics with the

G care symbol (= do not

wash!) in the washing machine.
