Wash
This symbol shows you if the item can be machine washed or if it has to be hand washed. It also tells you what the maximum washing temperature is and what cycle to use when machine washing.
The symbol can also indicate that the clothing item must not be washed. If that’s the case it is usually accompanied with an appropriate dry clean symbol.
