Important information
Washing drying preparing/Protecting the laundry and the machine
Empty pockets.
Look out for metal items (paperclips, etc.).
Trousers, knitwear and knitted textiles, e.g. Jersey garments, T-shirts or sweatshirts should be turned inside out.

Before tumble-drying, handwash items should be spun using the appropriate spin speed.
Remove as much water as possible before tumble-drying. Recommended spin speed for cottons is more than 1000 rpm; for easy-care is more than 800 rpm.
In order to ensure uniform drying, sort the items according to fabric type and degree of â drying required.
Items which require ironing do not have to be ironed immediately after being tumble-dried.
