Asked at the launderette
What temperature should I wash nylon at on a Whirlpool FreshCare+ FFB 9469 BV?
Wash nylon at 30C using the Synthetics programme on the Whirlpool FreshCare+ FFB 9469 BV. Nylon weakens and can shine or scorch under high heat.
What spin speed is safe for nylon?
Use 600 rpm. A gentler spin removes enough water without stressing the fibres. Wash cool on a synthetics cycle and air dry rather than tumble hot.

What happens if I wash nylon too hot?
Nylon weakens and can shine or scorch under high heat. That is why the safe setting here is 30C on the Synthetics programme.
