Preparation
4.1 Sorting the laundry
• Sort laundry according to type of fabric, colour, and degree of soiling and allowable water temperature.
• Always obey the instructions given on the garment tags.
4.2 Preparing laundry for washing
• Laundry items with metal attachments such as, underwired bras, belt buckles or metal buttons will damage the machine. Remove the
metal pieces or wash the clothes by putting them in a cotton laundry bag or cotton pillow case. Moreover, such clothes may warm up
excessively during drying and get damaged. For this reason, do not dry such laundry in the machine.
• Put small size clothes such as infant's socks and nylon stockings in a cotton laundry bag or cotton pillow case.
• Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove curtain attachment items. Do not dry tulle curtains in the machine.
• Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and tears.
• Wash "machine washable" or "hand washable" labeled products only with an appropriate programme. Do not dry such clothes in the
machine; either hang or spread them to dry.

• Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale removers suitable for machine wash. Always follow the instructions on the package.
