Before loading the laundry Never wash whites and coloureds together. New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time. · Also, fabrics containing residues of setting lotions or hair sprays, nail solvents or similar solutions must not be machine dried in order to avoid the formation of harmful vapours. Fibre residue After drying fluffy fabrics, such as new towels, it is advisable to perform the rinse programme N to be sure that any residue that may remain in the tub is completely removed and does not stick to garments dried afterwards. After each drying cycle the filter should be checked and cleaned. Additional drying Should the laundry still be too wet at the end of the programme, set another short drying cycle. To prevent the formation of creases or shrinking of fabrics, avoid excessive drying. 13 ENGLISH International wash code symbols These symbols appear on fabric labels, in order to help you choose the best way to treat your laundry.
