HINTS AND TIPS temperature should not exceed 40°C. Resistant white and coloured synthetics can normally be washed at 60°C but also in this case 40°C is sufficient if the laundry is not excessively dirty. Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast colours and woollen garments must never be washed above 40°C. As you already know, your washing machine can also wash with cold water.
To remove paint stains, for example, use a volatile substance such as turpentine: in this case, you should wait for it to dry completely before washing. The manufacturer of your washing machine is not responsible for any damage deriving from the use of volatile, inflammable or toxic substances.
