Keep calm
and sort
sensibly
Avoid potential
laundry disasters
by separating
your washing
load into whites,
lights, darks anddelicates. Sorting
will also help
ensure you dont
overload the
machine which
means youll
avoid white
residue being left
on your clothes
after the wash.
Identify any
stains and
treat quickly
Different stains
require different
approaches, but
moving fast is
always key. Any
stain is morelikely to be
removed if you
dont allow it to
set in, so avoid
sun, air and heat,
until you can
treat the fabric
properly. Use a
dedicated stain
remover to help.
Show your
wash load
some TLC
Choosing the
right detergent
formulation will
help you get the
best results for
all your clothes.A powder
formulation with
bleach will keep
whites sparkling,
while a gel, liquid
or liquitab will
help keep colours
vibrant. Select a
special detergent
for your delicates.
Make the
most of your
machine
A well-running
machine means
a more effective
wash. Consider
how big your
load is and howdirty the clothes
are then measure
the detergent
accordingly.
Check fabric-
care labels
and choose
the right
temperature
and wash cycle.
Consider
a fabric
conditioner
In addition to
making clothes
smell great, it
speeds up drying,
makes ironing
easier andprotects colours.
