Instruction manual
1
Before washing the jacket, carefully read the information on cleaning things usually contained on the tag sewn to the seam. Some products are accompanied by detailed annotations in the form of a care sheet, which is desirable to keep. If the tag shows a triangle crossed out by two intersecting lines, then washing the jacket in the typewriter is prohibited. The recommendation to wash the product by hand is depicted as a hand immersed in water.
2
After that, check all the pockets, get everything out of them. Sometimes money and documents are forgotten in pockets, which become unusable after contact with water. Then fasten all the zippers and put the jacket in the drum.
3
Put detergent in the compartment of the machine, but it is best to use a liquid detergent for washing. It will be easier to rinse.
4
The washing of the jacket in the machine should be carried out at the temperature indicated on the label. Most often, a limit of 30-40 degrees is set. If you wash your jacket at a higher temperature, the fabric may warp or shed. Set the washing mode. When using washing powder, it is desirable to set the function of additional rinsing, which will avoid the appearance of stains on the jacket.
5
If the jacket’s tag has an anti-spin icon that looks like a square in which three vertical stripes are drawn, restrict this function to the washing machine. It is preferable to wash the jacket in a delicate mode, with the least number of revolutions, the product will retain its shape better.
6
After washing, shake the jacket. Light outerwear can be dried on a rope, and filler jackets are dried horizontally.
Useful advice
If you plan to wash a jacket with a filler from fluff, you can put two or three balls for tennis in the drum of a washing machine. During washing, they will whip the filler, and it does not crumple.
