1. Washing

  • Dark and light clothes does not harmonize. Be careful with washing colored clothes, like red socks, along with light clothes, like a white t-shirt. The result may be a pink shirt. To prevent colors from mixing, divide your clothes in white, black, light color and dark color and wash them separately.
  • No chance for bad odor. Remaining moisture can create bad odors. That’s why you should keep the door and drawer of your machine open after use.
  • Take it easy. Don’t overload your washer’s drum. Follow the specifications in your machine’s manual.
  • The right temperature. Wash white, very dirty and greasy clothes as well as diapers and towels at 60°C and above. 40°C reduces fading or shrinking of your light-colored clothes. To stop dark and bright colors from fading use 30°C. But be careful! Please also consider the washing label of your clothes.
  • Miracle cure. For the best washing result different types of detergent are used for different types of clothes. Heavy-duty detergent with bleach is used to keep white fabrics pearly white. For a brilliant black use gentle detergent for black fabrics. For radiant colors in your colorful clothes use color detergent. And gentle detergent to protect wool and silk from damage.
  • Always cuddly. Use softener if you want your clothes to be extra smooth and cuddly.

2. Maintenance

  • The first wash cycle. Make sure your washer is empty and set it to 60°C when you run your machine the first time. After that your washer is clean and ready to go.
  • Clean and hygienic. If you want your machine to be always clean, keep in mind that you should clean the lint filter and the door seal once a month. A full cycle at 95°C is also really helpful.
  • For your health’s benefit. If you clean the detergent dispenser twice a month, your clothes will be free from deposits.
  • Your washing machine doesn’t like vinegar. Be careful with cleaning your washer with vinegar. Vinegar is likely to erode plastic parts and seals of your machine, shortening its lifecycle.
  • Scale the scale. In general your standard detergent contains enough anti-scaling. You should simply check the hardness of your water and dose your detergent accordingly.
