Washcare tips and Starting

Useful tips

Never use your washing machine to wash... torn, fraying or

non-hemmed linen. If it is absolutely neccessary, place it

in a bag for protection. Do not wash colored linen with

whites.

Watch the weights!

For best results, do not exceed the weight limits stated

below (figures show weight of dry garments):

- Resistant fabrics (heavy - regular-light cotton):

15 lbs (7 kg) maximum

- Synthetic fabrics (heavy-regular-light):

7.5 lbs (3.4 kg) maximum

- Delicate fabrics

6.5 lbs (3 kg) maximum

Denim Alert.

Some overalls have straps with hooks that can damage the

drum of your washing machine or other garments during

the wash. To minimize the risk, place hooks in the pocket

and fasten with safety pins.
- Pure new wool

3.5 lbs (1,8 kg) maximum

- Bathrobe lbs 6.5 (3 kg) maximum

How much does it weigh?
1 sheet 11/4 lb (400-550 gr.)

1 pillow case 4 oz. (120 gr.)

1 tablecloth 1 lb (450 gr.)

1 bathrobe 2-3 lbs (900-1,300 gr.)

1 towel 5oz/1 lb (150-500 gr.)

Colored T-shirts, printed ones and shirts last longer if

turned inside out before washing.

Printed T-shirts and sweatshirts should always be ironed

inside out.

Wool cycle

For best results, we recommend you use very little

detergent, taking care not to wash more than 3.5 lbs (1,8

kg) of laundry.

Vacations: unplug the appliance.

It is recommended that you should unplug the machine

from the socket and turn off the water supply. Leave the

door ajar to allow air circulation to the draw and the door

gasket area. This will prevent unpleasant odours.
