# Care instructions

> Create care presets with standard care symbols, and choose the company default.

A care preset is a saved set of care symbols with their wording. You make presets in **Organization details**, under **Care instructions**, and each product follows one.

Presets use the standard textile care symbols (ISO 3758), the same ones found on care labels.

A care preset set as the company default

## How products use presets

* Every product follows your **company default** preset.
* You can give a product a different preset on its page. See [Certifications and care](https://docs.luxima.io/products/certifications-and-care.md).
* When you edit a preset, every product on it follows the change.

The symbols appear on the public passport and on printed labels.

## Create a preset

**1. Start**

Click **Add care preset** and give it a name, for example "Wool knitwear".

**2. Choose a symbol for each treatment**

| Treatment | Examples of choices |
| - | - |
| **Washing** | Temperatures from 95 °C to 30 °C, mild and very mild cycles, hand wash, do not wash. |
| **Bleaching** | Any bleach, non-chlorine bleach only, do not bleach. |
| **Tumble drying** | Normal, low, do not tumble dry. |
| **Natural drying** (optional) | Line dry, drip dry, dry flat, each also in the shade. |
| **Ironing** | 210 °C, 160 °C, 120 °C, 120 °C without steam, do not iron. |
| **Professional dry cleaning** | Dry clean (P) or (F), mild, do not dry clean. |
| **Professional wet cleaning** (optional) | Wet clean (W), mild, very mild, do not wet clean. |

The preview under **On the care label** shows the symbols and their wording as you go. "Still to choose" lists what is left.

**3. Add extra instructions, if needed**

Use **Extra instructions** for anything the symbols do not cover.

**4. Save**

Click **Save preset**.

Your first preset becomes the company default.

## Change the company default

Click **Make default** on a preset. Products that follow the company default now follow this one.

## Apply the default to every product

To reset all products to the company default, click **Apply the default to all products** and confirm.

> [!WARNING]
>
> This replaces the care preset on every product, including products you gave a different preset. LUXIMA tells you how many products were updated.

## Edit a preset

Open the preset, change the symbols, and click **Save changes**. Products on this preset follow the new version.

## Remove a preset

Click remove on the preset. There is no confirmation step.

* Products that used it go back to the company default.
* If you remove the default itself, your oldest remaining preset becomes the default.

Each preset shows how many products use it, so check that number first.
