Washing instructions

Let's start with some general advice:

  • Separate whites and colors : This is a basic rule, but it's worth repeating.
    always, considering the damage that can be done by putting non-branded items in the washing machine
    compatible with each other;
  • It is possible to wash towels and sheets together , since
    the programs used and the temperatures are the same;
  • Do not overload the basket to allow for a
    effective washing: washing double bed sheets, pillowcases
    understood, it means having to deal with a fair amount of load already, which in the case
    of small-sized washing machines may already be sufficient;
  • Do not load the washing machine with rolled up sheets : the
    washing machine should not be done in a distracted and careless way, inserting some
    sheets closed on themselves and rolled up, which would not allow water and
    for the detergent to penetrate the fabric effectively; it is better to fold them
    fan, to make the washing machine's task easier.
