I live in a student apartment with three other students. There's a washing machine and I have no idea where the manual is. I need to be able to put it into a "cotton wash" (40 C) but I don't know which is the relevant symbol. I'm pretty sure it must be either the one that looks like a tree or the one that looks like a windsurfer, but I was hoping someone might check their machine and advise :) I tried looking for the manual on the Internet to no avail.
 
Check the care tags on clothes; I think I've seen those symbols on them.
Ask store clerks who sell washers.
Email a washer manufacturer....

Wash in cold water and don't worry about it. :)
 
I suspect that the little windsurfer would be silk, as that is the material used for most sails. I know the little tree, or cauliflower looking symbol is the cotton symbol.
