1. Remove the insert and check the cover's own model and laundry label. Do not confuse insert-care instructions with cover care.
2. The referenced IKEA GURLI cotton cover permits machine washing at a maximum of 40°C. Do not generalize that limit to all cotton covers.
3. The referenced SANELA cotton-velvet cover permits machine washing at a maximum of 30°C. Turn it inside out and close its zipper as instructed.
4. Neither of these products permits bleach or tumble drying. A low dryer setting is not automatically acceptable.
5. Dry as specified on the care label. Both list ironing up to 150°C, while SANELA additionally specifies steam ironing on the reverse only.
6. Refit the insert when fully dry. For velvet pile marks, follow SANELA's specific reverse-side steam-and-brush advice; stop if there is risk of discoloration or damage.
