Prepare the laundry
Caution!
Damage to the appliance/fabrics
Foreign objects (e.g. coins, paper-clips,
needles, nails) may damage the laundry
or components in the washing machine.
Therefore, note the following tips when
preparing your laundry:
■
Empty 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 or not
be cleaned correctly. Wash white
and coloured items separately.
Wash new bright fabrics separately
the first time you wash them.
■
Soiling:
Wash laundry with the same level of
soiling together.
Examples of levels of soiling:
– Light: Do not prewash; if
necessary, select the additional
programme setting
SpeedPerfect G.
– Normal
– Heavy: Load less laundry, select
a programme with prewash
– Stains: Remove/pretreat stains
while they are fresh. First, dab the
stain 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.
■

The numbers in the symbols indicate
the maximum washing temperature
that may be used.
– M: Suitable for a normal
washing process; e.g. Cottons

– U : A gentle washing process is
required; e.g. Easy-Care

hand; e.g. W Wool programme.
– Ž : Do not wash the laundry in
the machine.
Starching
Note: Laundry must not be treated with
fabric softener.
Starching is possible in all wash
programmes if liquid starch is used.
Measure starch into compartment M in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions (clean first if necessary).
