| The wash tub symbol on fabric labels represents machine washing instructions. There are typically dots placed in the center of each wash tub to represent temperature. A single dot is cool or cold, two dots is warm, and three dots is hot. The lines under the wash tub indicate cycle. No line means normal wash, one line permanent press, and two lines represent the delicate/gentle cycle. A wash tub with an X through it means "do not wash" and a washtub with a hand above it means "hand wash." The triangle on a fabric labels indicates if and how a garment can be bleached. A plain triangle indicates that any bleach can be used, a triangle with lines through it indicates only non-chlorine bleach should be used, and a shaded triangle with an X through it means "do not bleach." The square symbol on fabric labels represents drying instructions. A square with a circle inside it represents tumble drying directions and the square without a circle inside represents other drying options such as line dry, drip dry, or dry flat. A circle on fabric labels represents dry cleaning. The presence of a circle on a fabric label indicates the garment should be dry cleaned while the circle with an X indicates "do not dry clean." There may be further symbols that accompany dry clean instructions, such as solvent restrictions and cycles, but your professional cleaner should know how to interpret them. Lastly, the symbol of an iron on fabric labels indicates ironing instructions and the presence of dots indicates iron temperature settings; one dot is low, two medium, and three high. If the fabric label has an iron symbol with an X through it, it means "do not iron." |
