Sorting and preparing your washing · Sort the washing by type and care symbol (see chapter 5. 4: International symbols for care of textiles): normal wash for strong washing that can resist energetic wash and spin; delicate wash for delicate washing that should be treated more carefully. For mixed loads composed of articles of different types of fibers, choose a program and temperature suitable for the most fragile fiber. Wash white washing and color washing separately. Otherwise, the white washing may be colored or look gray. New clothes very often have too much color. Preferably wash new clothes separately for the first time. Respect "wash separately" and "wash several times separately" care instructions. Empty pockets and spread out the washing. Take off all loose buttons, pins and hooks and eyes. Close zip fasteners, tie knots in laces and straps. Turn clothes made of several layers of textiles (sleeping bags, anoraks, etc. ), colored hosiery and wool and textiles with add-on decorations, inside out. Wash small delicate items (socks, tights, bras, etc) in a washing net. Remove curtain hooks and put net curtains in a net bag or a sachet. 5. 3. Detergents and additives Only use detergents and additives suitable for use in a washing machine. Read the manufacturer's instructions and respect sections 2. 1 and 3. 2. [. . . ] Tilt the washing machine sideways and then remove the packing under the motor, and straighten the washing machine. If you want to keep your washing machine aligned with the adjacent furniture, you can cut the pipe support strip at the back of your washing machine. Leave the two side closers in place. 3. 2. Position Put the washing machine on a flat hard floor in a well ventilated room. Make sure that your washing machine does not touch the wall or any other furniture in the room. 3. 3. [. . . ]
