Know your washing symbols<\/h2>\n

The washing symbols for machine washable clothing are generally depicted as a bucket filled with water. The number or dots inside the bucket symbol indicate the maximum temperature recommended for the wash. For example, one dot means 30 \u00b0C (meaning that you have to wash your clothing in cold water). Two dots or 40 \u00b0C mean a warm water wash while four dots mean 60 \u00b0C.
\nOne line drawn underneath the bucket means that you should wash your piece of clothing on a synthetic cycle. Two lines represent the gentle or wool wash cycle. If you find the hand wash symbol on your garment\u2019s fabric care label, wash the item by hand at 40 \u00b0C or lower, or use your washing machine\u2019s hand wash program.<\/p>\n
