Wash tub with a hand	Hand wash only, in cool water.
Line under the tub	Use a gentle cycle. Two lines means a very gentle cycle.
Triangle	Bleach is allowed. A crossed-out triangle means never bleach.
Square with a circle	Tumble dry. One dot is low heat, two is medium. Crossed out means do not tumble dry.
Square with a flat line	Dry flat, so the garment keeps its shape.
Iron	Ironing is allowed. One dot is low heat, two is medium, three is high.
Circle	Dry clean. A crossed-out circle means do not dry clean.
