Machine washable soft toys

Be sure to check the toy tag before washing it. We take out everything that can be removed from the toy. We put the toy in a special net and wash it in the delicate wash mode. The water temperature is 20-30 degrees. We don't wring out the toy in the car, just drain the water. We wring out the toy itself with a terry towel.

A few rules for washing toys:

• Toysthat are filled with balls should only be cleaned using the wet cleaning method. We strongly do not recommend washing them in a washing machine - you can ruin not only the toy, but also the car.
• If the toy contains batteries, you must first carefully steam the seam and remove the batteries. Wash the toy using the most suitable method and dry it. Then put the batteries in and sew up again.
• Greasy stains we recommend cleaning with a sponge dipped in rubbing alcohol or with dishwashing detergent.
• Toys should not be washed with chemicals. Only baby shampoo and baby soap!
• If the battery pack cannot be removed from the musical toy, the cleaning method for such toys is dry or wet only.
