See on the display 5. 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. We advise against using several types of washing powder at the same time. The quantity of detergent to be used depends upon the amount of laundry to be washed, the hardness of the water and how dirty the laundry is. If the water is soft, slightly decrease the doses. If the water is hard (the use of a water softener is advised) or if the laundry is very dirty or stained, increase the doses a little. You can find out the degree of hardness of your water by contacting your local water company or any other competent authority. Powder detergents can be used without restriction. [. . . ] Moving your washing machine Tilt the washing machine backwards, rotate it by a quarter of a turn on one of its corner to remove the transport base. If you want to move your washing machine, lift it onto its rollers by pulling the lever at the bottom of the washing machine all the way to the left. When you have put your washing machine into the required location, put the lever back into its initial position. Open the washing machine lid and remove the immobilization packing and plastic films. Leveling Precise leveling will prevent vibrations, noise and movements of the washing machine during operation. [. . . ]
