The released fluff could stick to the fabrics
during the next cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fab-
rics.
To prevent the lint in your clothes, it is rec-
ommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you
washed and dried light coloured fabrics
(new sponge, sweatshirt especially) and
vice versa.

Helpful hints and tips

Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each gar-
ment label and the manufacturer's washing
instructions. Sort the laundry as follows:
whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates,
woollens.
Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just
water and detergent. It is therefore advisa-
ble to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For
dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
stain remover product then rub in the soap
and water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain
remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth
and dab the stain; treat several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpen-
tine, lay the garment on a soft surface and
dab the stain with the fingertips and a cot-
ton cloth.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a
rust removing product used cold. Be careful
with rust stains which are not recent since
the cellulose structure will already have
been damaged and the fabric tends to
hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well
(white cottons and fast coloureds only).
